95 points Sarah Marsh, MW (The World of Fine Wine): "This monopole has a golden, glossy aroma, with the richness of fresh marzipan. Almond and rich buttery notes. Quite sumptuous. And on the palate, just lightly creamy, nicely rounded, but the freshness comes from underneath, with a broad blade of austerity. What a delicious cold cut to the punchy finish. 2025–30+. (1/19/22)"

92-95 points/'5-Star Wine,' Jasper Morris, MW: "Pale lemon and lime, with both a refined bouquet and intensity behind. 'The inimitable Clos Blanc' says Sylvie. So much fruit detail here, both the sharper styles such as fresh apple, through a whole range of pears but stopping short of peach or anything tropical. All white fruit, excellent taffeta texture, great length. (Nov 2021)"

94 points Christy Canterbury, MW (TimAtkin.com): "Focused, bright and pretty, this is a savory, even saline, wine. There's an attractive leesiness on the nose followed by ample yellow fruits on the generous, juicy palate. Plums, sweet apples and cherries mesh on the long finish. I always find this wine delightful. 2022-28. (2022)"

94 points La Revue du Vin de France: "Tasty material in the Clos Blanc de Vougeot, combining volume and length, buried power, nuanced and mellow flesh with a far-reaching finish. (2023)"
