85 Points

Sunday, April 23, 2017 - Wine Spectator rated this as 92, excellent price from Total. Not sure what WS drinking but didn't read like what I am drinking. This is a reasonable champagne for the reduced price, nice nose, mousse, citrus flavor, some creaminess, short to average finish. It lacks complexity and flavor interest found in other grower champagnes (albeit at a higher price) such as Clouet or the Pertois-Moriset GC BdB drank last week. It's fine but not a rebuy for me. I'd rather pay a little more and get a lot more (it is better than the Heidsieck Monopole Blue Top or the Pannier Brut, other recent inexpensive experiments). The quest for good value inexpensive champagne rolls on!
