Vinous (94-96)The 2020 Chablis Valmur Grand Cru is much more expressive on the nose compared to the Vaudésir, featuring copious yellow plum, yellow flower and mineral scents. The palate is very saline on the entry, matched with a perfect bead of acidity, and fans out wonderfully on the finish. This is going to be an outstanding Valmur. |

Vinous - Neal Martin (93)The 2021 Chablis Valmur Grand Cru feels a bit reduced on the nose and I would have liked more energy and delineation. The palate is well balanced with just the right amount of bitterness on the entry to lend tension. Cohesive, judiciously spiced and quite linear as it segues towards the finish, this should repay maturation in bottle. Tasted blind at the Burgfest tasting. |

Wine Advocate (94)The 2023 Chablis Grand Cru Valmur is lovely, unfurling in the glass with notes of green orchard fruit, citrus zest, wet stones and oyster shell. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and racy, it's deep and saline, with as usual a quintessentially Chablisien profile. |

Vinous (92-94)The 2010 Chablis Vaudésir starts off rather cool and inward before it positively explodes on the mid-palate and finish. It is a beautiful, fleshy Chablis that impresses for its expansive volume and sheer pedigree. |

Vinous (93-95)The 2020 Chablis Vaudésir Grand Cru has an almost clinical bouquet, wonderfully defined, with superb salinity and mineralité. The focused palate is citric and tensile, and the salinity gets the saliva flowing. Classic Chablis through and through. This will be an exceptional Vaudésir. |

Jasper Morris Inside Burgundy (92-94)Fullish pale yellow. Powerful but discreet, not too sunny. There is a touch of coconut from the wood, definitely some yellow fruit, with a slightly smoky finish, very typical and quite lovely. Drink from 2025-2031. Tasted: June 2022 |

Wine Advocate (93)The 2022 Chablis Grand Cru Vaudésir is lovely, bursting with aromas of vine blossom, peach and pear. Medium to full-bodied, satiny and layered, it's suave and seamless, with a pretty, expressive profile that makes it one of the most charming wines in the range. |

Burghound (88-91)This is aromatically similar to the Petit Chablis though with more citrus elements in evidence. There is again good richness to the succulent and rounded medium-weight flavors that also exude a refreshing salinity on the clean, moderately dry and sneaky long finish that is slightly firmer. (88-91)/2026+ |

Vinous (89-91)The 2022 Chablis Village has a crisp, focused bouquet with hints of pressed white flowers and wet stone. The elegant palate has flecks of white peach and apricot, balanced and lovely with a charming, precise finish. This is very capable and should age well in bottle. |

Burghound (87-89)Firm, and pungent, smoky reduction dominates the nose at present though there is good freshness and energy to the delicious, rich and sappy medium weight flavors that possess better backend balance. This should drink well young and with 2 to 4 years of keeping. |

Vinous (93)The 2018 Chablis Les Clos Grand Cru, which comes from 1.3ha of 37-year-old vine and sees 12 months in used barrels, has an attractive bouquet of white chocolate, almond and crushed stone, discreet white flower notes emerging with time. The palate is well balanced with lime and lemon peel, less honeyed in texture compared to the Vaudésir but with a more saline finish. Could it benefit from more tension? Maybe, but it is in keeping with the style of the vintage and is certainly well crafted. |
