93pts James Suckling
Attractive nose of caramelized apples, dried apricots, pastries, shortbread, praline and some roasted vanilla bean. Some saline notes, too. Medium-to full-bodied with bright acidity and silky bubbles. Sleek and well integrated. Pinot noir and chardonnay. Drink now.
90pts Decanter
Sleek in structure and lively in tone, with subtle notes of sour vanilla and coconut. Hints of well-controlled evolution.
90pts Vinous
Bright yellow-gold. Ripe orange, poached pear and vanilla on the deeply perfumed nose. Flashy and open-knit, offering pliant orchard and pit fruit flavors braced and lifted by juicy acidity. At once rich and lively, with the vanilla note repeating on the smooth, toasty finish. Just over one-third of this blend is barrel fermented reserve wine.
90pts Wine Spectator
Pretty apple blossom and spice notes accent the Dijon pear, white cherry and biscuit flavors in this balanced Champagne, with a lacy mousse. Offers a clean-cut, modest finish. Drink now.
90pts Wine Enthusiast
Aged on the lees for five years, this Champagne is rich with a fine, mature bottle-aging character. It shows dryness, a texture that comes from the Pinot Noir in blend and a generous aftertaste. Drink now.
