97 points Charles Curtis, MW (Decanter): "Sourced from a 0.15ha parcel on the white marl soil near the top of the slope, with those soils bringing a pronounced mineral note, alongside an element of violets and a high-toned currant fruit. The texture on the palate is tannic and very firm, with ample extract and enough acidity to carry this to an incredibly long finish. This is always one of the highlights of this cellar, and in 2020 it certainly does not disappoint. The grapes are fermented with 15-20% whole-cluster. Drinking Window: 2025-2050. (Nov 2021)"
94-97 points Jasper Morris, MW: "Dense crimson purple, this is nearly as welcoming as the Amoureuses but with its extra touch of wildness. Blackberries in there. Power all the way through, some salinity at the finish, warm and friendly. Magnums only. (Oct 2021)"
93-95 points Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from terres blanches and to be bottled only in magnum). Here the elegant and pure nose is reticent but exceptionally pretty with its mix of super-fresh red berries, rose petal, spice and discreet earth wisps. There is very fine underlying tension to the powerful and solidly concentrated big-bodied flavors that brim with dry extract on the youthfully austere, compact and very much built-to-age finish. This markedly serious effort will need time and especially in magnum format. Drink: 2042+. (Apr 2022)"
