94-96+ points Jeb Dunnuck: "The 2022 Côte Rôtie Vallière comes from a tiny half-hectare of vines in the great lieu-dit in the northern part of the appellation. Black raspberries, spring flowers, violets, and an obvious sense of rocky minerality define the aromatics, and it's medium to full-bodied, with a vibrant spine of acidity and fine tannins. It's going to need bottle age, but it will be great. (3/28/24)"

93-96 points Nicolas Greinacher (Vinous): "Prominent violet, black cherry, blueberry, cedar and black cherry aromas are neatly captured in the 2022 Côte-Rôtie La Viaillère. Built around a massive tannic structure, the concentrated and medium-bodied 2022 is a wine of substance, pedigree and class. Polished and round, this is shaping up to be a stellar Côte-Rôtie. Readers should note that no 2021 was produced due to spring frost. Drink: 2027-2040. (Oct 2023)"

95 points Matt Walls (Decanter): "Soft impression on the palate, though does have the Viallière elegance and violet aroma. Good concentration, slightly warming alcohol, velvety tannins. Actually quite robust in tannic weight on the finish, but acidity is fairly gentle. From 90-year-old vines, the oldest of the domaine, from which they take cuttings for replantings. Drinking Window: 2026-2036. (9/17/23)"
