Ripe and concentrated red and black fruit shows poise and restraint. The palate is open and perfumed with bright red fruit, roses and violets with savoury undercurrents of tea leaf and brown spices. The fruit is encased by velvety tannins and lifted by a lovely freshness and a long, concentrated finish. Drink from 2021.Armit Wines

"A super-elegant and very graceful champagne that you sink into like a huge, velvet sofa. The ravishing orange-blossom aromas make this really hard to resist! Very suave and silky finish. From vines planted in 1951 and 1991. Disgorged in April, 2021. Drink or hold." 95 Points, James Suckling

"Ripe and concentrated, but youthful, bright and light-footed, this has stacks of candied orange peel character plus plenty of bread dough and a touch of celeriac. Not as dry as you might imagine for Extra Brut, but very chalky with vivid mousse at the finish. Another year or two of bottle age could bring more. From the Montaigu site, vines...

"Striking nose of candied orange peel with a touch of red berry and delicate bread dough notes. Generous and ripe with some real power on the palate, the fruit pouring over the palate in one great wave, the chalky minerality almost under the waterline, but deftly supporting the long finish. Bottled on the 27 April 2017 and disgorged in November...

"More open, slightly darker and more foresty initially, this is a more muscular wine and also a blunter weapon to be unsheathed for meatier dishes and colder nights. Smoky, sylvan and fertile, this is a more traditional style with a shorter, but broader attack, and I like its hearty attack and sense of gusto." 18.5/20 Points, Matthew Jukes

"This is an amazingly floral and earthy wine with pure, rose petal and cherry blossom hints on the nose, bounded by superb rigidity on its flanks. There is a sensationally voluminous palate here, and the experience is amazingly long. Somehow, it maintains control throughout, travelling directly and steadily across the palate, never wavering or changing pace. Relentless, beautiful and resonant,...

Beautifully pure, floral nose. On the palate a racy, energetic feel with nuances of stone fruit, acacia, brioche and underlying minerality. Lovely purity and vitality run like a vein through the wine, which has a long, crisp, slightly nutty finish. Exemplary Blanc de Blancs and great apéritif style. Deliciously precise with high toned citrus fruit providing thrilling focus and definition....

A pretty yet restrained nose. The palate is vibrant and delicate, pure and long.
