  December 31, 2023 - 2017 base with reserve back to 2013, disgorged in 2019. Intensely powerful citrus fruit and zest with very good density, even if slightly more tense less rich) than I would consider ideal.

  December 13, 2023 - 90% Meunier of the 2018 vintage of a plot of the town of Chambrecy, in Vallée de l'Ardre, to which it incorporates between 10 and 15% of reserve wines from a tradition of the harvests from 2013 to 2017, and 10% of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. It ferments and is raised in 228 L barrels used with indigenous yeasts, not filtered or clarified. Maturation of just under 24 months in the bottle with its lees.
  Dosage: 1 g/L.
  Dégorgé le: 23-06-2020.
  Citrus, yeast, intense, juicy, long, delicate, elegant and persistent!

  December 3, 2023 - Nez timide à l'ouverture de cave humide, un peu de pain et une touche d'estragon séché. Après 1 heure, se réveille et le côté humide laisse place aux zestes d'agrumes confits, champignon frais et bord de mer. Très surprenant avec une attaque franche, une bulle de grande finesse mais ce qui impressionne c'est sa réelle concentration (donnant un effet d'un haut dosage malgré son faible 1g) avec des fruits du verger, beaucoup de craie et du pain frais. C'est long et persistant. Belle bouteille

  October 27, 2023 - Champagne Tasting on Champagne Day (Park 90): Impressions, Base 2020 with reserve wines from 2013 to 2019, blend of Meunier and Chardonnay, disgorged 07/22, dosage 1g. Beautiful aromas of red apple, red fruits, honeysuckle, touch of greenish but palate seems rather thin with med finish. Prob needs more time for the palate to open althought the bouquet is lovely.

  August 19, 2023 - Wine from 2013-2017, disgorged in 2019. Lots of citrus from start-to-finish wtih very good weight and intensity, even if slightly more austere than I might prefer. Some further upside I expect.
