‘The 2015 Brut Nature Blanc de Blancs O.G. Grand Cru was harvested in the single parcel Chemin de Flavigny in Le Mesnil-sur-Oger. Vinified in stainless steel, this spent five years on lees. Slightly reductive earthiness disperses to reveal melted butter, lemon peel and lifted chamomile. The lemony brightness continues on the palate where fine mousse and exquisite freshness show elegance and sinuousness. This is perhaps not as bracing as other years, but it captures chalky saltiness on a poised, smooth and light body that is utterly mouth-watering and brings exquisite length. Zero dosage. Disgorged: May 25, 2022. 2023-2035’ – Anne Krebiehl MW, Vinous, 93/100

‘From the Chemin de Flavigny in the lower part of Oger comes this broad, warm-tempered blanc de blancs in the extreme 2015 vintage, punchy up front with citric bitters, bergamot and herbal extraction while moderate in acidity and length. This particular wine perhaps shows more of 2015 than it does of the vineyard site. 2024-2029’ – Tom Hewson, Decanter, 89/100

‘Lemon yellow with a small bead of moss on the surface. Pastry aromas and orange zest. Then more complex with wheat, white fruits, toast, coffee. Fresh and round, vinosity and volume on the palate. Finale with aromas of biscuits and almonds. Distinguishes itself from other wines by its gourmand and round side.’ – Winemaker
