94 points (17/20) La Revue du Vin de France (Jan 2019).

93 points Wine & Spirits: "This 17.8-acre grand cru became part of La Chablisienne in 2003. In 2015, it’s a wine of detailed soil expression, with limestone tension holding the wine’s density and richness to a tight focus. Mouthwatering in its fresh herb and bitter almond flavors, this is vibrant, if still unyielding. Check on it ten years from the vintage, when it may have begun to soften. (Oct 2020)"

93 points Stephen Brook (Decanter): "Stony nose, though very subdued now. Rich and bold, the palate is more dramatic than the other grand crus, with good tension and weight. Powerful and imposing without being heavy-handed, although it lacks a little persistence on the finish. Drinking Window: 2018-2026. (Jan 2017)"

92 points Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from very old vines). Moderate wood sets off the super fresh, cool and admirably pure aromas of citrus, floral, pear liqueur, sea breeze and mineral reduction scents. Like several wines in the range I very much like the lovely texture of the energetic medium weight flavors that also possess fine concentration if not the same degree of minerality on the lingering finish where a hint of bitter lemon appears. This too will need a few years of bottle age such that better depth can develop and the wood treatment can more completely integrate. Drink: 2023+. (Oct 2017)"
