James Suckling (JS) : 94 Points (2020)

This has intense, engaging aromas of dried cherries, grilled plums, chocolate, hazelnuts, dried orange peel and nutmeg. It’s medium-to full-bodied with silky tannins. Supple, bright and packed with sun-kissed fruit and spice. There’s plenty of tension, too. Tight finish. Best after 2024.

Robert Parker (RP) : 92 Points (2020)

The difference between the 2020 Grand Père Pinot Noir and the Grand Mère comes from the soils, and this suffers less in warmer years because the plants get less stressed and have more water. So, within the riper style of the year, this has more austerity, but it's still juicy, medium-bodied and fine-boned, with 13% alcohol and some spiciness from the barrels in the finish. Best after 2022.

Wine Spectator (WS) : 90 Points (2019)

Opens with mushroom-laced cherry and berry notes, gathering intensity midpalate around fresh acidity and hints of thyme. Ends with smooth tannins and a note of caramel.
