94 points James Suckling: "A subtle lemon-curd and cooked-apple aroma with green melon and floral undertones. Biscuit and white pepper, too. It’s medium-to full- bodied with lovely fruit that shows hints of hay in the palate. So real for the appellation. From biodynamically grown grapes. Drink now. (12/20/20)"

89-92 points Jasper Morris, MW: "Red soil, exposed south in Solutré, near the 400m mark. Full The vines are not especially old but are affected by virus so millerand grapes abound and there is not much foliage. Bright yellow, a little bit of evolution on the nose which will be tidied up before bottling. Super succulent fruit, just enough acidity but a depth of flavour which is classically Pouilly-Fuissé. Strong solar yellow fruit with a clean fresh finish. A wine capable of ageing. (Dec 2019)"

91 points William Kelley (Wine Advocate): "The 2018 Pouilly-Fuissé Au Vignerais is also performing well, unfurling in the glass with aromas of citrus oil, pear and fresh peach. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and enveloping, it's elegant and precise, remaining beautifully balanced. This south-facing climat was picked on August 29th. Drink: 2020-2028. (Jun 2020)"
