95pts - Tyson Stelzer, The Champagne Guide

The wine was fermented in stainless steel, followed by malolactic fermentation to give extra suppleness. Following fermentation, the liqueur de tirage was added and the wine underwent a slow second fermentation in bottle, and extended ageing on its lees for seven to eight years. This resulted in a wine with a finer, more persistent mousse and greater potential for complexity. After disgorgement, the wine received a Brut dosage of 8g/l and was aged for a further six months minimum before release.

Pinot Noir 50% and Chardonnay 50%. Deep gold color with some straw reflections. White peach and citrus zest notes are accompanied by slightly blid notes, for a very elegant and subtle nose. A fresh and frank attack in the mouth on citrus notes, followed by persistent elegance. The finish extends over dried fruit and pastry notes. A wine to be tasted now but which can also be kept in a cellar to appreciate its complexity and depth in a few years.

One of the greatest vintages in the last 30 years!
