91-93 points Jasper Morris, MW: "62 barrels of which the component in new barrels has been racked. Heady and delicious, yet very well balanced, so lively, good natural acidity, fruit at optimum ripeness, light on its feet and very long. Frankly, this is a brilliant cuvée and there is plenty of it! (Nov 2020)"

92 points Charles Curtis, MW (Decanter): "Lovely depth for a village wine, this is very 'Gevrey', with a dark fruit character, lots of spice, more plum than cherry and an earthy, savoury note. On the palate there are firm tannins and a satisfying length. Produced from the lieux-dits of Les Seuvrées and La Justice, among others, there were 10% whole clusters fermented on native yeasts and aged for two winters in cask (20% new). Drinking Window: 2021-2034. (Jan 2021)"

90-92 points/'Outstanding,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(50% from Les Seuvrées with the remainder from Fourneaux and Les Jeunes Rois). A mentholated top note is present on the more restrained nose of red berries, underbrush and a touch of humus. The delicious medium weight flavors possess a relatively supple mid-palate that immediately tightens up on the youthfully austere and moderately rustic finish that flashes outstanding depth and persistence for a villages level wine. This built-to-age effort is excellent. Drink: 2029+. (Apr 2021)"
