93 points Matt Walls (Decanter): "Rich yellow in colour, slightly honeyed, very high in alcohol, very rich in body and puppy fat. There's a little honeysuckle on the nose. Low acidity, but it has an inner freshness. Fermented in fûts and old barriques, spends a year on the lees with no racking. Picked in two passages. Drinking Window: 2020-2025. (Oct 2020)"
93 points Joe Czerwinski (Wine Advocate): "Produced using the domaine's usual blend of 80% Marsanne and 20% Roussanne, the 2019 Saint Joseph les Oliviers Blanc is a bit richer and more honeyed than typical, marked by broad ripe flavors of pear, melon and pineapple. Medium to full-bodied and silky textured on the palate, it's balanced by a zesty, briny finish that provides delineation and lift to the ripe flavors. Drink: 2021-2030. (Jan 2022)"
