92 points and 'Outstanding,' Allen Meadows (Burghound): "(from a .66 ha parcel). This offers just a hair more aromatic elegance with its wonderfully pure, cool and layered red pinot, red cherry and wet stone-inflected nose that is very much in keeping with the delicious, mouth coating and vibrant flavors that are an exercise in harmony and balance. A classic Charmes of grace and excellent persistence. Drink: 2018+. (Jan 2013)"

90-93 points Fine Wine Review: "The Chambolle-Charmes is from vines that average 45-50 years old. The mineral nose is followed in the mouth by a light, lacy texture with intense red fruits that are long, and plenty of finesse. (Issue #134; 2011)"
