James Suckling: 94 Points

The first impression is as invigorating as a sea breeze. I love the interplay of mirabelle grapefruit and lychee fruit with minty freshness and waxiness from lees contact. And all this is welded to a beautifully proportioned palate with plenty of structure the acidity bright and the mousse animating. Very salty finish that pulls you back for more. A cuvee of 41% chardonnay 33% pinot noir and 26% pinot meunier. Of these 15% fermented in oak and 85% in stainless steel. The final blend contained 36% reserve perpetual and 10% reserve wines of the 2012 - 2018 vintage from oak. The dosage is 7 g/l. Drink or hold

Vinous: 93 Points

The NV Collection 244 is gorgeous. Bright and focused with a lovely cut the 244 is immediately captivating. Dried pear chamomile herbs mint and crushed rocks abound. Based on the 2019 vintage with 36% perpetual reserve wines from vintages 2012-2018 this vibrant wonderfully crystalline Champagne impresses from beginning to end. Saline notes extend the finish effortlessly. Dosage is 7 grams per liter.
