"A deep golden robe marked by a delicate, orchestrated and persistent effervescence - the result of a slow and long maturing process in chalk cellars. The 50% reserve wines give an elegant nose; freshly baked brioche, roasted notes and ripe, sun-kissed fruits - mango, apricot, mirabelle plum - as well as dried fruit, pistachio and almond. The texture evokes the crunch of a layer of creamy nougat, with fleshy fruits like plums and cherries. The finish reveals amber and vanilla notes as well as a touch of praline." - House Notes
"It spent four years on lees and opens with its characteristic smoky, sultry reduction. Redcurrant and lemon follow, leading to an ultra-clear, bright, vivid palate that is limpid with Chardonnay and structured with Pinot fruit, managing to be rich and rounded without a gram of fat." - 92 Points, Antonio Galloni, Vinous
"The NV Brut Réserve, a combination of more than 60 different crus and 150 wines, evokes aromas of brioche, pastry, ripe orchard fruits, beeswax and spices. Medium to full-bodied, enrobing and charming, it has a fleshy core of fruit, a pinpoint mousse and delicate acids, making it a charming, delicate Champagne." - 92 Points, Yohan Castaing, Wine Advocate
