Robert Parker's Wine Advocate scored this 94 points saying "The last vintage for a site that's due for replanting, the 2020 Puligny-Montrachet 1er Cru Les Referts (Domaine Louis Jadot) wafts from the glass with aromas of freshly baked bread, buttered popcorn, citrus zest and white flowers. Medium to full-bodied, taut and concentrated, it's chiseled and mineral, with tangy acids and a chalky finish."
Wine Spectator scored this 94 points saying "An expressive, balanced white, with lemon curd, white flower and peach flavors at the core. Remains delineated, thanks to bracing acidity, while a lightly viscous feel buffers the structure. Reveals light tannins that add a tactile sensation on the spicy, lingering finish."
Burghound.com scored this 93 points saying "A ripe yet distinctly cool nose combines notes of pear, apple, lemon zest and a touch of matchstick. The succulent and seductively textured medium-bodied flavors possess excellent verve on the chiseled, serious and balanced finale that also exhibits a touch of tannic edginess.3."
Vinous Scored this 92 points saying "The 2020 Puligny-Montrachet Les Referts 1er Cru showed just a touch of reduction on the nose, although there is clearly some wonderful vibrant fruit here. The palate is well balanced, quite refined in style, one of Jadot’s more understated white ‘20s with (again) some new oak to be subsumed on the finish. Very fine."
