94+ points William Kelley (Wine Advocate): "The most structured Fleurie in the range is the 2019 Fleurie Clos Vernay, a medium to full-bodied, elegantly muscular wine evocative of plums, sweet wild berries, orange rind and spices. Built around tangy acids and powdery tannins, it will reward patience—indeed, this would be a fine candidate for purchase in magnum. As I've written before, this sheltered, southeast-facing site is defined by decomposed granite and quartz soils. Drink: 2023-2037. (8/19/21)"
93 points/'Outstanding/Top Value,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from vines planted in 1975 and 1980). Here there is more earth influence on the ripe and beautifully layered aromas of spice, violet, and plum. The gorgeously textured, refined and even more mineral-driven flavors display superb length on the equally complex finale. This is outstanding and one to strongly consider. Drink: 2027+. (Apr 2021)"
