91-94 points Jasper Morris, MW: "This is a few months behind where it would normally be and will not be bottled before late January. Pale lemon colour with a really classy chiselled bouquet and a superb wealth of predominantly white fruit right across the palate to a clean cut finish. This is brilliant wine and seems fully concentrated. And what’s more he has 100 barrels of this. (Dec 2019)

92 points Tim Atkin, MW.

92 points James Suckling: "Dried pear and apple with some lime aromas and flavors. Medium body and medium-round texture with a lightly tangy finish. Minerally. Drink now. (12/21/22)"

91 points John Gilman (View From the Cellar): "The 2018 Chassagne villages here was all ready for bottling and was just settling in for another month or so prior to its mise. The wine had been assembled at the end of July and fined the last week of October, so it was showing very well in mid-November. The nose is pure and very floral this year, offering up a fine blend of pear, apple, a lovely base of soil, lemon blossoms and vanillin oak. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied and succulent at the core, with a zesty girdle of acidity, lovely focus and grip and impressive backend mineral drive on the complex and beautifully balanced finish. Fine juice. 2020-2045. (Nov/Dec 2019)"

91 points La Revue du Vin de France: "The Chassagne-Montrachet smells of firestone, an elegant woody finish supporting the fruit. A beautiful, deep and fleshy wine. (2021)"

'Outstanding,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from 3 separate lieux-dits). Discreet wood influence sets off the ripe aromas of various white-fleshed fruit along with hints of matchstick and lemon rind. The rich and relatively full-bodied flavors possess both good detail and punch, all wrapped in a less refined but notably more complex finale. This is a quality Chassagne villages. Drink: 2023+. (Jun 2020)"
