93 points/'Outstanding,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "Ripe yet cool aromas of pear, apple, carnation and crushed fennel lead to succulent and intense flavors that are also gorgeously textured while displaying superb length on the bone-dry, moderately austere and sneaky long finish. This too is excellent though also a wine that's going to need at least some patience. Drink: 2031+. (Jun 2024)"
92 points William Kelley ( Wine Advocate): "Habitually one of the domaine's more mineral wines, the 2021 Saint-Aubin 1er Cru Les Frionnes is taut and electric, offering up scents of white flowers, sweet citrus oil, oyster shell and toasted nuts, followed by a medium-bodied, pure and racy palate that's saline and electric. Drink: 2025-2040. (1/18/2024)"
92 points Neal Martin (Vinous): "The 2021 Saint-Aubin Les Frionnes 1er Cru has a composed bouquet that unfurls in the glass, less immediate than, say, the Chez Edouard, but it is more concentrated with a touch more yellow fruit. The palate is beautifully balanced with a keen line of acidity and a very precise, lightly spiced finish. Excellent. Drink: 2027-2043. (Jan 2024)"
91 points Jasper Morris, MW (Inside Burgundy): "Pale in colour, with some depth to the fruit, quite tight, a light reduction. A salty touch at the finish. Pure white fruit all the way through, this holds up very well. Orchard fruit with a salty edge continues on the palate towards a distinguished finish. (Nov 2023)"
