93 points William Kelley (Wine Advocate): "The 2020 Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Les Frionnes is one of the more reserved wines in the range, unwinding in the glass with aromas of orange zest, confit citrus, crisp yellow apple and white flowers. It's medium to full-bodied, satiny and incisive, with racy acids and a long, saline finish. Forget it for the better part of a decade in the cellar and reap the rewards, even if it will be approachable sooner. Drink: 2027-2050. (1/31/23)"

92 points Neal Martin (Vinous): "The 2020 Saint-Aubin Les Frionnes 1er Cru, a mix of 10- and 80-year-old vines, is elegant on the nose and quite refined. Touches of orchard fruit and white peach and just a hint of marzipan in the background that betrays the warm summer. The palate is well-balanced, very saline, taut and focused. Then, it clams down on the finish and orders you to come back in 3-4 years to see if it's ready for business. Drink: 2027-2043. (Jan 2023)"

Bill Nanson (Burgundy Report): "(80 and 10-year-old vines.) Not the same width of aroma but still a fine and partly floral invitation. Extra mineral with a hint of textural generosity but here’s a brilliant wine that you should wait a little for – 2-5 years and then enjoy – but what a great and broadly finishing flavour. (12/23/22)"
