95 points Decanter: "Enticing candied citrus fruit and spice with an exquisite mineral undertone; super clean and tense with a sumptuous texture and a long, harmonious finish. (DWWA 2020)"
94 points Tim Atkin, MW: "This monopole vineyard of 2.28ha is picked in three tranches over the space of a week to enhance its complexity. Among the Côte de Nuits' best whites, it's pithy, nuanced and well-structured, with very subtle oak handling, flavours of citrus and gunflint and a long, mouthwatering finish. Drinking Window: 2020-2025. (Oct 2018)"
94 points (17/20) La Revue du Vin de France: "The white Vougeot is saline, sapid, with a particular and fine grain: refined, elance, it is complete. (2020)"
94 points Wine & Spirits: "The Boisset family owns two parcels on the north side of the road leading up to the Clos de Vougeot. Together, they account for 4.83 acres, the vines planted between 1983 and 1996, farmed under biodynamics. This wine spends 18 months in oak barrels, one-third new, taking its bold and exotic fruit in the direction of fresh cream, pistachio and hazelnut. The flavors have the yellow tartness of Buddha’s hand citrus and underripe pineapple, their zingy apple and mineral-tinged acidity tending to the sophisticated richness of the wine. It’s juicy as you breath in, tense as you breath out. (Apr 2020)"
93 points Jasper Morris, MW: "A mix of barrel and tank at this stage. Pale colour, reticent nose. The fruit in the mouth is very high class though, entirely white fruit, more at the back than the front, well-knit with its Forêt de Cîteaux oak, and exceptionally persistent. (Nov 2018)"
93+ points Fine Wine Review: "Harvested at three different stages. A little Pinot Gris and Pinot Blanc in this wine. Round with depth, presence, substance. length. Very impressive. (12/10/18)"
