Media Reviews

Antonio Galloni

...a fine introduction to this range. Medium in body and quite gracious, the tasty NV Brut Reserve offers up hints of dried pear, spice, dried flowers, kirsch and chamomile. This is a big step up from what was the norm here a few years ago. This release is based on 2019, with 38% reserve wines going back to 2006. A touch of wood-fermentation (8%) works well here. Dosage is 3 grams per liter. 90 points
