93-94 points Tyson Stelzer (The Champagne Guide): "(2016 base vintage with 2015 reserves; disgorged May 2019; 100% chardonnay from Cramant, Chouilly and Oiry; vinified in stainless steel tanks; full malolactic; aged at least 36 months on lees; 7g/L dosage; cork). Blanc de Blancs is the game for Bonnaire, and this cuvée presents the signature of their home of Cramant, capturing the tension, mineral depth and power of the village. A pale, bright straw hue heralds its precision, carried through a palate of excellent depth and concentration, built around a tense core of apple, beurre bosc pear, grapefruit and lemon, with layers of aniseed. The excellent salt chalk minerality of Cramant surges long and strong through a finish of poise, energy and presence. (Edition VII; 2024)"
93 points Claude Kolm (Fine Wine Review): "Bonnaire is located in the village of Cramant on the Côte de Blancs. Celebrating its 90th anniversary this year, it has long been a favorite of mine. Floral, stony, haunting nose. Stony in mouth, fairly full-bodied, deep and pure, with tension. Zero dosage, undergoes malolactic fermentation, base wine is from 2016, 100% Chardonnay. (11/15/22)"
