93 points Wine & Spirits: "[$70/750ml list] A fresh Chablis with a purity and precision to its apple flavors, enriched by salty mineral funk underneath. The clean apple blossom scent is delicate, ringing out with the clarity of a bell. A happy wine, bright and ample, tense and yielding. (Feb 2023)"
92 points Bruce Sanderson (Wine Spectator): "[$70/750ml list] A fresh white, evoking peach, yellow plum and citrus flavors, with an underlying flinty element. Round and supple, with a saline finish. Shows excellent balance and length. Drink now through 2028. 253 cases imported. (9/30/23)"
92 points La Revue du Vin de France: "In premier cru, Côte de Léchet 2020 delivers both mineral and vegetal dimensions, with a fine reduction. The palate is straightforward, with a lovely burst of fruit. (2024)"
90-92 points Allen Meadows (Burghound): "Ripe and fresh aromas are mostly comprised by notes of citrus confit with background wisps of quinine and sea breeze. The slightly richer medium-bodied flavors possess equally good energy and intensity before culminating in a bitter lemon rind inflected finish. Solid quality here in a package that should reward 4 to 6 years of cellaring. Drink: 2025+. (Oct 2021)"
91 points James Suckling: "Fresh green apples, jasmine, lemons and crushed stones on the nose. Nice restraint and minerality, with a medium body and stony, steely finish. Drink now. (6/8/23)"
90 points Neal Martin (Vinous): "The 2020 Chablis Côte de Léchet 1er Cru has a tightly-wound bouquet with Granny Smith apples, wet pavement, and oyster shell scents. Quite focused and delineated. Well balanced with nice acidity, the palate is taut and fresh with a very subtle mintiness towards the finish. Plenty of character here, if not so much sophistication compared to others. Drink: 2023-2033. (Sep 2022)"
