Hervé Pennequin C - Lacks bubbles, dark yellow gold, almost copper. N - Almost meaty character, fruit compote – apple, almost rancio notes. Very rich, intense.

Mark Slater C - Perfect appearance, very lively bead, beautiful golden hue. N - Brilliant bouquet, quality is apparent, super complexity. P - Full throttle, full bodied, tons of flavor, excellent quality and elegance, almost perfect balance, super length. Delicious : Fantastic “matured” taste. Divine Champagne.

Teresa Perez C - Clean, brilliant, golden yellow, burnt copper reflections. N - Toasted bread, chalk, rubber notes, ample, generous aromas, elegant, highly complex and intense.
