95 points/'Outstanding,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from a vine density equivalent of 30,000 vines/ha). There is outstanding aromatic complexity to the elegant and slightly riper aromas of citrus peel, acacia blossom, spice and essence of pear. I very much like the impressive power and mid-palate concentration displayed by the refined and mineral-driven medium-bodied flavors that culminate in a citrus-inflected, clean and dry finish that delivers excellent persistence. This is an absolute knock-out by any standard and a genuine 'wow' wine. If you can find it, don't hesitate! Drink: 2032+. (Jun 2023)"
94 points Neal Martin (Vinous): "The 2020 Saint-Aubin Derrière Chez Edouard Haut Densité 1er Cru has a taut and focused bouquet with petrichor, Granny Smith apples, touches of orange pith emerging with time. This builds and builds. The palate is well balanced with a touch of white pepper on the entry, a keen line of acidity, superb matière towards the persistent finish. Drink: 2026-2048. (Jan 2023)"
