95 points Jasper Morris, MW (Inside Burgundy): "Pale colour, with a fresh and restrained bouquet, waiting its turn. But the class is there. Pure white fruit in the inimitable Clos style. Monolithic in youth, this will become so much more expressive ten years from now. Everything is there and in perfect balance. You do not see the heat of the vintage. (Jun 2022)"

94+ points William Kelley (Wine Advocate): "The 2020 Chablis Grand Cru Les Clos is full-bodied, textural and muscular, evocative of citrus zest, crisp green apple, white flowers, freshly baked bread, almond paste and ripe peaches. Layered and concentrated, it's the richest, broadest wine in the range, yet it remains nicely defined. Drink: 2025-2045. (Jul 2022)"

93 points Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(also from .50 ha parcel, half of which is young vines). The nose instantly makes clear that this could be from nowhere else but Chablis with its aromas of iodine, oyster shell, brine, citrus zest and green apple. The intense, powerful and focused larger-scaled flavors possess terrific delineation while exhibiting strikingly good length on the chiseled, youthfully austere and lemony finish that is like rolling small rocks around in the mouth. Despite the excellent upside development potential, this is not so backward that it couldn't be enjoyed after only a few years. Drink: 2030+. (Oct 2022)"
