Critic Scores, Reviews & Descriptions

92 WA / 90 WE

The nose of this wine seduces you straight away with a great balance of autolytic and fruit aromas: toasted hazelnuts, warm apple tart and kaya (coconut and egg) jam. The palate is equally well balanced providing plenty of evolved fruit and toasty / yeasty flavors. Small, fine bubbles, seamless use of dosage and a long nutty finish. This fine if relatively unknown Brut NV takes first place in the derby - a shocker even for me! -Lisa Perotti-Brown, Wine Advocate

From a vineyard with records going back over 1,000 years, this nonvintage cuvée is balanced and rounded, with harmony between the apple and tangy fruits and a touch of toastiness from bottle aging. It is ready to drink. - Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate held a blind tasting of NV Champagne and one wine toppled all of the more well known names. Made from grapes coming exclusively from Premier Cru vineyards, you would be forgiven if you thought you were drinking something that cost twice the price!
