94-97 points Jasper Morris, MW: "Three barrels, one each across three years. Robust, glowing purple, this wine is full of fruit, not quite the detailed latticework of the very finest Ruchottes, but nonetheless more and more detail starts to appear the longer this wine stays in the mouth. Love the finish, the oak blends in very well, and now the detail really is coming out with a type of floral elegance. (Nov 2021)"
95+ points William Kelley (Wine Advocate): "The 2020 Ruchottes-Chambertin Grand Cru may even surpass its 2019 predecessor at maturity! Mingling aromas of wild berries and plums with hints of forest floor, rose petals and blood orange, it's full-bodied, concentrated and seamless, with velvety tannins and an elegant, sensual profile, concluding with a long, perfumed finish. Drink: 2027-2050. (Jan 2022)"
92-95 points/'Sweet spot,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from a .16 ha parcel). A cool, restrained and airy nose somewhat reluctantly offers up its aromas of herbal tea, rose petal and pretty red berry scents. The sleek, intense and beautifully well-detailed middle weight flavors exude evident minerality on the youthfully austere, linear and sneaky long finale. Classic Ruchottes. Drink: 2035+. (Jan 2022)"
