Charles Curtis, MW (Decanter): "This intriguing wine boasts ripe nectarine and peach aromas and hints of acacia flowers and lemon peel. The texture is lively and fresh, and the surprisingly fresh acidity balances the rich fruit aromas to carry the wine to a lingering finish. The grapes are from a 0.24-hectare plot in the lieu-dit Au Leurey in Prémeaux-Prissey across the Route Nationale from the Clos de l'Arlot, including a proportion of Chardonnay Muscaté; they are gently pressed and fermented in cask (25% new) before ageing 12-15 months. Drinking Window: 2024-2030. (Nov 2023)"
89 points Neal Martin (Vinous): "Returning after being frosted in 2021, the 2022 Côte de Nuits Blanc Villages Au Leurey, which had already been bottled, has a tightly wound bouquet with Conference pear, red apples and light frangipane scents loitering in the wings. Fine delineation, though not powerful. The palate is well-balanced with a taut line of acidity. There’s more tension than the Le Mont Blanc, with a twist of bitter lemon enlivening the finish. Give this a year in bottle if you can. A fine comeback. Drink: 2024-2030. (Jan 2024)"
89 points Christy Caterbury, MW (TimAtkin.com) (2024).
88 points Jasper Morris (Inside Burgundy): "Frosted out in 2021, welcome back. A little white fruit, nicely strict but with good intensity. Fine length, and the fruit is well supported by a little barrel. No new wood. Drink from 2025-2027. Tasted: October 2023."
