Decanter Magazine: 94 Points

Graphite, iron and pencil lead come before the blackberry fruit here – a very mineral aromatic expression, almost austere. Medium-bodied but with good presence on the palate and some sweetness to the berry fruits. A compact, dry and mineral expression. La Landonne is always strict, but this really is austere. The whole-bunch element is marked, and the tannins are fine and plentiful but very tense and dry. This needs a long time, don't drink it too young. The only single-vineyard bottlings in 2021 will be La Landonne and Côte Blonde - and that's if they are not eventually blended into Ampodium.

Jeb Dunnuck: 91-93 Points

The 2021 Côte Rôtie La Landonne brings much more structure. Darker fruits, mulberries, ground pepper, leather, and earth are just some of the nuances, and it hits the palate with medium body, building tannins, and good overall density and concentration. All Syrah that was not destemmed, it's going to need 4-5 years of bottle age.
