93 points Neal Martin (Vinous): "The 2020 Chassagne-Montrachet Les Baudines 1er Cru is fragrant and tender on the nose, lovely yellow plum and white peach scents, pine nuts and litchi. The palate is very well balanced with a fine bead of acidity. This is taut and fresh with perhaps the best salinity on the finish of Pillot’s 2020s. Excellent. Drink: 2023-2038. (Dec 2021)"
90-93 points Jasper Morris, MW (Inside Burgundy): "Fuller lemon colour, slightly singed nose, the sun on the stones, as these grapes come from the southern exposure as the slope gives way towards Santenay, so fully in the sun. Chiselled stones behind, more white fruit than yellow, less full bodied. (Oct 2021)"
90-93 points/'Outstanding,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "Much like the Vergers, an elegant, cool and airy nose exhibits essence of pear and floral aromas though with markedly more citrus influence. There is terrific punch to the mineral-driven and ultra-precise middle weight flavors that brim with minerality on the youthfully austere, chiseled and citrus rind inflected finale that displays fine length. This balanced effort though could use better depth though it's already very pretty. Drink: 2027+. (Jun 2022)"
Bill Nanson (Burgundy Report): "Here the aromas are a little more vertical – a freshness, a marzipan note! Structured and muscled like the last but equally airy – finishing with a bit more saline intensity – great finishing! (12/25/21)"
