93-96 points Wine Spectator: "Balanced and very spicy, with almond paste and apricot. Full-bodied, medium sweet, with a long, fruity, tangy finish. Layered and stylish.. (6/30/08)"

95 points (17.5/20) La Revue du Vin de France: "The 2007 had marked a change of style with a purer wine, less massive in its early youth, and a better integrated and more balanced liquor. (2010)"

95 points Falstaff Guide: "Pale yellow gold. Delicately spicy honey notes on the nose, ripe peach and stone fruit, powerful mineral bouquet. Highly elegant on the palate, perfectly integrated sweetness, delicate caramel touch, fine grapefruit zest on the finish, great potential. (10/9/15)"

19/20 points Jancis Robinson, MW: "Sweet, vaguely sticky nose. Certainly impressive for the sugar level! And there's an attractive savoury undertow that stops it being sickly. Lots there. Reverberates. Long. Very long. It has that thing that a good Condrieu has: a subtext. Drinking Window: 2018-2035. (Apr 2008)"
