1/18/2024 - iBurg1229 wrote: 88 pointsPale straw appearance. Generic aromas/flavors of lemon peel, green apple, brioche, toasted almond. Ok acidity level. Pedestrian length of finish. This style of champagne is overtly yeasty for me and overpowers the character and purity of the fruit which I don’t love. |

8/5/2023 - Vino Me wrote: 94 pointsThese 4th generation growers have been producing their own Champagne since 1929 and are located in the town of Chouilly. They own 18 ha spread across 40 parcels. 100% Chardonnay from their oldest Chouilly Grand Cru vines in the Cote des Blancs which are planted on shallow chalk soils. 6g/l dosage. I previously had the 2007 and 2008 vintages of this wine and this 2012 was the best. Light yellow color. Moderate bead. Cotton candy nose. Very bright on the palate with notes of chalk and almonds. 94 points. |

3/4/2023 - bardle Likes this wine: 85 pointsNice leesy character, broad, creamy, rich, hazelnut, brioche, dessert like on the nose and lush, definitely a sense of age here, more than I would have expected. Acid seems to have fallen off a bit, as have the bubbles and in doing so the dosage leaves it slightly unbalanced. Still a fantastic QPR at $45. '14 disg |

3/31/2023 - Vino Me wrote: 93 pointsThe last of my 3 bottles. This bottle is an example of the adage that there are no great wines just great bottles (my last bottle was scored 84). Light yellow color. Fantastic aromas of butterscotch on the nose. Moderate bead. Notes of chalk, meyer lemons and almonds. Creamy texture. No signs of being over the hill. 93 points. |

3/6/2020 - 5laton wrote: NRChouilly. This was initially a bit thin and boring, but rounded out with air and ended up being quite pleasant to drink. The style reminded me a bit of Gimonnet, whose wines I rather enjoy in riper vintages but find a bit slight otherwise. Overall I was happy to drink it, but it's not something I'm inclined to buy again. |

Leans a little to the oxidative side but retains a freshness. It walks the tightrope between rich and acidic well, only wish there was a bit more strength in the fruit. |

8/21/2022 - ocassiuso wrote: NRBottle 1609g. "Dosage Zero". Moderately intense aromas of lemon curd and brioche. Very dry – evaporates in the mouth – with elevated acidity, fine mousse, and a saline and vinous finish. Gives an impression of seriousness: more for food than an aperitif. |
