94/100William Kelley,Robert Parker Wine Advocate
The 2020 Chablis 1er Cru Butteaux is lovely, unfurling in the glass with aromas of pear, orange oil, lemon, freshly baked bread, beeswax and oyster shell. Medium to full-bodied, taut and structured, it's a serious, concentrated wine with a lively spine of acidity and a long, mineral finish.

The 2020 Chablis Les Butteaux 1er Cru offers intensity similar to the Montmains, but this is a little more petrolly on the nose, which is beautifully defined and very focused, developing a faint nuttiness with aeration. The palate is well balanced and conveys a sense of energy on the entry. Saline to its core, this fans out wonderfully toward the finish and feels lightly spiced on the aftertaste. Excellent.
