93/100 Wine Spectator 3rd November 2010 - A rich, smoky Champagne, with flavours of roast nut, coffee grinds, burnt sugar, toast and marmalade layered with subtle acidity, creating a well-meshed, gernerous wine. Lightly honeyed thoughout, with an interesting botanical not lingering on the finish. Drink now through to 2016.
This score was the highest for the vintage at the tasting! A real bargain.
