92 points Charles Curtis, MW (Decanter): "This impressive, weighty wine is blended from premier cru Les Crays along with bits of Haut de la Roche and Les Vernays (in Fuissé) that are not in premier cru. The wine boasts lush apple and apricot fruit aromas along with hints of butter, honey, and exotic spice. The texture is almost decadently opulent, with an almost tangible sense of phenolics and the ageing on the lees. Complex and rich, this wine will please some tasters and scare others, yet it is a strong example in a classic style. Drinking Window: 2023-2033. (Nov 2022)"

91 points William Kelley (Wine Advocate): "A lovely new cuvée based around sites denied the premier cru appellation, the 2021 Pouilly-Fuissé Grands Terroirs Oubliés wafts from the glass with aromas of orange oil, pear, nutmeg, beeswax and freshly baked bread. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and textural, with racy acids and a long, mineral finish, it's worth seeking out. Drink: 2022-2030. (Sep 2022)"
