Score 97/100 · James Suckling, Oct 2025
Gold in the glass, this old Champagne shows rusty minerality with aromas of apples, chalk, peat, salami and pineapple juice. Pinprick bubbles with zesty acidity and a tight, biting palate that’s balanced by ripe and round fruit. Vibrant apple aftertaste. Drink or hold.
