Max score: 93.0

Based in le Mesnil-sur-Oger, this champagne made from Chardonnay is perfect to share with some friends or family over the weekend, or to enjoy with a nice meal on its own. Gilbert & Gaillard who awarded this wine 90 points made a great summary about this wine: “Tell-tale nose of fresh hazelnuts, white flowers, brioche and pastry notes. Fine-grained, melted texture, coated with freshness. Nice minerality shines through. An ideal aperitif wine or partner for shellfish.”

Youthful nose, hints of banana and mango adding an exoticism; the palate is fuller, equally interesting, refreshing and pure with assured bubbles, the creamy biscuity notes subservient to a minerally, chalky substrata.

This NV Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Brut Cuvée de Réserve (disgorged in December 2017) is sourced from 67 different parcels of the Côte des Blancs (Mesnil, Oger, Avize and Cramant) and is composed of the vintages 2015 and 2014 (in equal parts) and 60% (!) of a réserve perpétuelle that dates back to 1998. The wine is clear and pretty intense on the nose, displaying ripe and intense fruit aromas. Rich and quite powerful on the palate, this is an elegant, finessed and well-structured cuvée with a good finish. Tasted in April 2018.
