My first sip on the '06, and I'll be coming back for more... Very fine bubbles, quite elegant in the glass. Incredibly balanced between mineral, acid and Chardonnay fruit, hint of sweetness and salinity on the long finish.

Photos of the hand carved, chalk cellar halls that extend three levels below ground to age an amazing amount of wine and 3000ml bottles of the Brut Reserve resting in the riddling racks. They have one employee to riddle all their bottles, he turns about 44,000 bottles per day.

We got the extra special tour thanks to our trade affilliations, seeing bottles they usually don't allow the tours go any place near... Hiding deep the caves they are resting the Comte in the (2012) 3L jeroboam and (2012) 6L methuselah formats, OMG would I love to get my hands on one of those... Keep your eyes out, guessing they might hit the market in the next few years. 🍾🍾 They won't be cheap. — 7 years ago

A riddle wrapped in an enigma. Wooly lemony and tense. Chenin lovers would approve. One with which to think whilst having a drink. — 7 years ago

On the nose, ripe lean fruits of; strawberries, cherries, watermelon, tangerine. Citrus blossoms, baguette, chalky minerals and pink florals & rose petals. Strawberries, cherries, watermelon, black raspberries, tangerine with peel, baguette, soft razor sharp palate chalk, sea spray, medium intensity volcanic minerals, near perfect acidity with round, rich beautiful finish. Gold standard for rosé champagne and my go to rosé for the $. Photos of their champagne house, one of their vineyards, cellar A-frame rack to riddle the bottles and branded exterior property wall.

Delicious. Elegance and grace with more tertiary aromas showing spice and earth and bricks. Reminiscent of more feminine Brunelli. Drinking very nicely don't hold it in your cellar much longer. — 9 years ago

2012. Ripe purpleness poured on hot bricks! Or, in laymen's terms, juicy & round w supple tannins underscored by an earthy minerality. — 10 years ago

Outstanding for the money. The nose hits like a ton of bricks but it's very balanced and well rounded on the palate. Definitely benefits from a good decanting. — 10 years ago

What a lovely wine. Bordeaux at its peak and best. As Elizabeth says “bricks and leather and licorice oh my”. Dark berries and tobacco with a slight hint of cocoa; tannins are soft and elegant allowing the fruit and aromatics to shine. Great wine at its peak. If you own it, drink it now to enjoy a treat! Stellar wine! — 7 years ago

Bought in Napa in 2013 and feel like I paid way more than $35. Hit us like a ton of bricks with deep red fruits like currant and cherry. Nice wine and dangerously easy to drink. — 10 years ago
