A dry Champagne, showing good maturity, the fruit mutating into a more nutty character. It has a very taut character, a wine under tension, textured and ethereal in character. ——R.V.(12/1/2011)—— 91

This lovely tete de cuvee shows off a mature, sweet bready nose with light citrus accents. It hits the palate with assertive, full green apple, bright citrus fruit complemented by strong leesy notes. Quite young and lively despite its age, it closes long with complex lemon and yeast flavors, and should even improve with a few more years in the bottle.——W.E.(6/1/2001)—— 89
