96 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "The 2011 Corton-Charlemagne literally bristles on the palate with energy. Bright lemon, citrus, white flowers and crushed rocks all take shape in the glass. In 2011 the Corton-Charlemagne is wonderfully pure, layered and direct. A host of citrus and graphite notes inform the vibrant, saline-infused finish. Jadot's 2011 Corton Charlemagne is a true stand out. Drink: 2021. (Sep 2013)"
95 points John Gilman (View From the Cellar): "Maison Jadot has produced an absolutely stellar example of Corton-Charlemagne in the 2011 vintage, with the wine offering up a superb bouquet of apple, pear, orange zest, stony minerality, smoke, white flowers and vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is deep, full-bodied and very primary in profile, with a rock solid core of fruit, crisp acids, laser-like focus and great length and grip on the youthful and utterly classic finish. 2020-2060. (Nov/Dec 2012)"
95 points Ian D'Agata (Vinous): "Layered and very pure, the 2011 Louis Jadot Corton Charlemagne offers a huge mouthful of Chardonnay, featuring round pineapple and lime notes in the best tradition of this hallowed vineyard. Even better, I found Jadot’s oaking to be especially judicious in this vintage. The wine is ample, rich and very long, and was an absolute joy to sip all by itself. Drink: 2018-2024. (Nov 2018)"
95 points Michael Apstein (Decanter): "At a decade of age, this Jadot Corton-Charlemagne is a stunning surprise from this poorly-regarded vintage. Bright, fresh and long, it delivers distinct minerality, depth and an alluring hint of orange-rind spice. It’s a beautifully developed Corton-Charlemagne that is just hitting its stride and shows no signs of fading soon. It reminds us of the importance of producer, more so than vintage, when selecting Burgundy. (Drink between 2021-2026. (Apr 2021)"
93 points Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from Les Pougets in Aloxe-Corton). An aromatically reticent nose features notes of lemon/lime, wet stone and Granny Smith apples that are trimmed in a subtle application of warm oak. The expansive, taut and well-muscled broad-shouldered flavors possess an ample amount of dry extract and intensity on the driving finish that exhibits a faintly saline character. I very much like the intensity here as well as the very dry backend and this should be superb if allowed adequate cellar time as it is still very tight today. Drink: 2021+. (Jun 2014)"
