Josh Raynolds - Vinous
(72% from 2008, 13% from 2007, 3% from 2006, 7% from 2005 and 5% from 2004; aged for three years on its lees before being disgorged in May, 2013; note that this is a magnum bottling and that the blend of wines is different than that for the 750-ml. version reviewed above): Light yellow. Poached pear, honeysuckle and quinine on the nose, complicated by a hint of toasted bread. Energetic citrus and orchard fruit flavors are softened by suggestions of smoky lees and vanilla bean. Turns spicier on the long, mineral-accented finish, which features juicy citrus and melon notes.

This delightful Blanc de Blancs marries excellent depth of character – all the citrus, crisp pear and floral aromas of chardonnay – with charm. Properly dry, but very harmonious, thanks to the excellent balance of citrusy freshness and creaminess. Long, clean finish, accentuated by the lively mousse. A cuvee of 2/3rds 2018 with a third of vintages between 2016 and 2011, disgorged in July, 2021.

Roger Voss - Wine Enthusiast
With its crisp apple fruit and touch of citrus, this initially seems to be merely fruit. Then, slowly, richness and a sense of maturity emerge to create a wine that is complex, full and rich. Open this an hour before pouring.

Subtle aromas of citrus fruit, pear, lemon curd and chalk. Fresh and crisp on the medium-bodied palate, with mineral notes and fine bubbles. Clean and balanced with a lot of freshness and vibrancy. Delicate, creamy aftertaste.

A toasty style with slightly nutty, singed-bread aromas plus very intense white flowers reminiscent of linden trees. Light-bodied with crisp acidity, medium-sized bubbles and a leaner finish that’s elegant and floral.

Light yellow-green with silver reflections and a lively delicate mousse. Fresh aromas of yellow apple and a touch of pear and lime zest, with a mineral undertone and some walnut. Medium-bodied, taut and racy in the mouth, with white fruit and a tight-knit emphatically salty style. An assemblage from seven vintages.
