Ratings & Tasting Notes:

91 points James Suckling

A silky Champagne with aromas of apricot pie, shortcrust, croissants, lemon curd and seashells. Very fine, soft bubbles. Gentle salinity underneath the pastry notes, with a soft finish.  (6/2022)

90 points Decanter

A touch of reduction plays on the waxy nose. Peaches and nectarine on the palate with citric fruits and a hint of sour honey; a bit creamy and subtle, yet resonant. (Panel Tasting)  (10/2020)

90 points Wine Enthusiast

With a high proportion of the two Pinots in the blend, this cuvée is a ripe and floral Champagne. This bottling has some age which has produced a touch of toast to add to the crisp, dry texture. It’s an attractive, fruity and mature Champagne, ready to drink now. (RV)  (12/2020)

90 points Wine Spectator

Meyer lemon peel, poached apricot and pastry cream notes are tightly meshed with a minerally underpinning and racy acidity in this vivacious Champagne. Creamy finish. (AN)  (12/2020)

Wine Advocate

The latest release of Perrier-Jouët’s NV Grand Brut bursts from the glass with an expressive bouquet of ripe pears, citrus oil, crisp white peach and freshly baked bread. Medium to full-bodied, fleshy and textural, it’s ample and enveloping, with a generous core of sun-kissed fruit, a delicate mousse and a nicely defined, delicately sweet finish. (WK)  (4/2020)
