"Only Premier Cru and Grand Cru sites are selected for the 2016 Champagne Blanc de Noirs Extra Brut. The nose has a very pure perfume of raspberry, red plum, and crushed roses, and it is fleshy on the palate, with a fine mousse and notes of wild strawberry, blood orange, and almond. The house excels at this style, and this example is no exception with its ripeness and purity. Best after 2024."
Wine Spectator, 93 Points
"Firm and minerally, with a lacy texture, this structured version deftly integrates baked plum, smoked almond, preserved lemon, anise and chalk. Creamy finish. Disgorged April 2022. Drink now through 2029."
Wine Advocate, 93 Points
"Disgorged in April 2022, the 2016 Extra-Brut Blanc de Noirs is a very classy wine, delivering aromas of red apples, pear, honeycomb and nectarine, followed by a medium to full-bodied, fleshy and layered palate that's broad, textural and vinous. A serious, gastronomic Champagne, it will work well at table."
Alcohol: 12.5%
