Tim Heaton Likes this wine:
August 29, 2023 - PnP, quite good by the second glass. Began a bit off-piste as many wines often do. That said, by the second glass and through the final sip this improved to the point it was very good. Typical chalk, saline, orchard fruit, etc., with a keen sense of proportion, and vg, fresh acidity. Should keep, and may even improve a touch in the short term. At ~ $70, a very fair value. recommended

March 8, 2021 - First Glavier, and it just happens to be what I believe is their top wine because I found a good deal. This is serious stuff - focused and intense, on the fuller-side of medium bodied but still showing true Côte des Blancs character. Impressive.

October 23, 2019 - Terry Thiese Champagne Portfolio Tasting (Pops for Champagne, Chicago IL): The nose is deep and pure, filling the glass with tones of white fruits, peaches, red and green apples, pears, meyer lemons, crushed rocks, saline, acacia flowers, minerals, warm dough, biscuits, vanilla, and baking spices. The feel is Medium bodied with racy, high acidity. The feel is beautifully textured and balanced with a lot of depth and precision. This is a killer step up from the NV. There is great depth, balance, and texture with a classic Cotes de Blancs take.
