Critics Ratings
'Expressive flavors of crème de cassis, lemon pâte de fruit, pastry cream and ground spice ride the refined and creamy mousse of this elegant Champagne, bolstered by racy acidity that leaves a mouthwatering impression on the finish. Disgorged December 2014. Drink now through 2028. 416 cases made.' - Alison Napjus, Wine Spectator, 93/100 (Nov 2015)
'The 2008 Côte Premier Cru, a blend of 80% Chardonnay and 20% Pinot Noir from Vertus, is striking. Translucent and expressive, the 2008 captures a gorgeous, crystalline expression of Vertus Chardonnay, with a little added body and texture from the Pinot. Sweet floral and honeyed notes wrap around the expressive, precise finish. There is a lot to like here. Dosage is 6 grams/liter.' - Antonio Galloni, Vinous, 92/100 (Jul 2015)
