James Suckling: 98 Points

Enormously complex nose that marries so many flinty savory and citrus aromas. Astonishing texture on the rich but precisely delineated palate the concentration creeping up on you building and building to a great crescendo. Enormously mineral aftertaste. Drinkable now but best from 2023.

Mid straw yellow. Some substance to the nose a sturdy style of white Burgundy. The palate offers a depth of yellow fruit matched by necessary acidity. This wine does not display the class of the Jadot version at this stage in its life but may reveal more with age.

Burghound: 93 Points

This is also aromatically cool and restrained with its combination of essence of white orchard fruit especially pear along with hints of wood spice mineral reduction and rose petal. There is excellent intensity to the textured concentrated and quite powerful big-bodied flavors that exude evident minerality on the focused finish that is quite tightly wound. This is going to need at least 6 to 8 years of bottle age first. (Drink starting 2029)

Wine Advocate: 91-93 Points

The 2019 Chevalier-Montrachet Les Demoiselles Grand Cru opens in the glass with notes of crisp orchard fruit white flowers orange oil almond paste pineapple and fresh pastry. Full-bodied satiny and textural it's rich and expressive with lively acids and a charming demonstrative personality.
