"A gorgeous grower Champagne offering excellent value either solo for a virant apéritif, or for gastro pairings for its pretty red fruit, cocoa butter and brioche notes. Smoked salmon mousse perhaps, or beef carpaccio with Parmesan"  Aoife Carrigy, Irish Independent, 11th December 2021

"This elegant premier cru Champagne is streets ahead of several big names costing almost twice the price. Lovely bottle age and complexity, and a bargain even at its full price of €39" Tom Doorley, Irish Daily Mail, 17th July 2021
