Score 89/100 · Drink 2013-2017, Antonio Galloni, Vinous, Dec 2011

The 1999 Blanc de Noirs possesses tons of energy and concentration, even if some slightly rough edges remain. Hints of tar, ash and smoke add complexity to the red berry fruit in this broad shouldered, expansive Champagne. The masculine, imposing finish adds to the wine's powerful personality.
