91-93 points Neal Martin (Vinous): "The 2019 Bourgogne Aligoté Clos du Roy is tightly wound on the nose, scents of citrus peel, dandelion and light grassy notes unfurl with aeration. The palate is very well balanced with succulent ripe pineapple and passion fruit, leading to a much spicier lemon thyme and ginger tinged finish that leaves the mouth tingling. Superb. Drink: 2023-2033. (Dec 2020)"
'Outstanding/Top value,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "A more expressive nose more freely offers up its combination of citrusy floral, spiced pear and apple scents. The sleek and almost painfully intense flavors brim with salinity on the bone-dry and sneaky long finish. Once again, this offers unusually fine quality for the genre. Drink: 2024+. (Jun 2021)"
