winemaker's notes:

This Champagne is a blend of some 30 Chardonnay and Pinot Noir vineyards, respectively 40% and 60% of the total, from several harvests of perfectly ripened grapes.

alcohol by volume: 12.0%
critical acclaim:

"A round, generous style, offering peach, candied lemon and honey flavors on a creamy texture. Its mousse is refined, and this turns drier on the long finish. Drink now through 2011."

Wine Spectator

"A fine, very pure style of Champagne. Has hints of toast and citrus fruits that come together in a style that is almost the essence of Champagne. Crisp, rich and complex."

91 Points

Wine Enthusiast

"Crisp aromas of green apple, wheat and minerals. Fresh, creamy flavors of apple and toasted bread with hints of red fruit. Classy finish."

rating (1/5/2012):
I would drink this if served but I wouldn't buy it. It has a slightly sharp, yeasty tasty that isn't balanced out well with any slightly sweeter notes.
rating (9/29/2010):

The most expensive grape in champagne is Chardonnay. This champagne is over 40% Chardonnay. Compare to it's competition at the same price which has much less chardonnay in their blend makes it a value.
