Robert Parker's Wine Advocate awarded this wine an impressive score of 95. The review highlights its complex aroma profile, stating that it "wafts from the glass with scents of white flowers, crisp green orchard fruit, citrus zest, pastry cream, fresh mint, and toasted sesame." The wine is described as medium to full-bodied with a "deep and chiseled" character. The review goes on to note the wine's "sweet core of fruit underpinned by racy acids," which culminates in a "long, mouthwateringly mineral finish." This review emphasizes the wine's exceptional qualities and nuanced flavors, making it clear that this is a standout vintage from Domaine Coche-Dury.

Vinous also provides high praise for the 2020 Meursault Caillerets, giving it a score of 93. Reviewer Neal Martin notes the wine's "perfumed peony and dandelion-scented bouquet," with additional notes of Mirabelle and jasmine that develop over time. The palate is described as having plenty of "bite" on the entry and being "quite saline in the mouth." While Martin mentions that the Les Chevaliers has slightly more finesse towards the finish, he still concludes that the 2020 Meursault Caillerets is "very, very delicious."

Overall, the 2020 Domaine Coche-Dury Meursault Caillerets is a highly regarded Chardonnay that showcases the complexity and elegance typical of wines from this producer and region. Both reviews highlight its aromatic depth, balanced acidity, and mineral finish, making it a noteworthy choice for wine enthusiasts.
