Jeb Dunnuck, 96 Points 

"Moving to the 2018 Champagne Grand Cru Verzenay (100% Pinot Noir), it’s broad and expansive on opening, with notes of kirsch, violets, pink grapefruit, and blue fruits as well as a very pretty floral flourish. A bit more delicate on the palate than the Bouzy, it offers lovely purity, with a fluffy mousse and mouthfeel and a silky texture. It’s attractive now and will continue to improve over the coming 10-15 years. Zero dosage." 

Alcohol: 12.5%
