95pts Decanter
A scrumptious core of green apple, yellow pear, stone fruit and flashes of fresh white blossom and herbs suffuses the chalky effervescence and zippy acidity.
91pts Wine Enthusiast
Full and ripe, while also textured, this is a rich wine. Its Chardonnay character shows with the taut edge of acidity and nervy aftertaste. Drink now.
Winemaker Notes
This cuvée has been crafted from a meticulous selection of chardonnay grapes that provide good vivacity and a rich complexity. Indispensable to any great cuvée, chardonnay is a precious grape variety for champagne that knows exactly how to offer Pommery champagnes delicacy, elegance and freshness.
With a remarkable elegance, the first nose reveals a spring freshness. Subtle floral notes of jasmine and acacia are harmoniously paired with delicate grades of linden. After this first impression of an incredible freshness, a large complexity reveals itself during which notes of citrus fruits and a creamy impression of frangipane express themselves alternately.
The attack is open, without detour, as a sign of a very great assemblage. The elegance and freshness revealed on the nose can be found back on the palate. The heart of the tasting is of an exemplary righteousness. The aromas of citrus fruits and white fruits (fresh apple) take over. The balance of the final is perfectly revealing the subtle flavor of yellow grapefruit.
