93 points James Suckling: "The effusive nose of candied citrus, ripe pear and brioche pulls you into this fresh and creamy champagne that hits all the pleasure buttons for a non-vintage Brut. Then the chalky freshness at the finish pulls you back for another sip. Excellent balance! 100% pinot noir. Drink now. (1/5/22)"
92 points Stacy Slinkard (Decanter): " Incredible value for a blanc de noirs (100% Pinot Noir) grower Champagne from the grand cru vineyards of Bouzy. It shows gorgeous aromas of stone fruit, citrus and strawberry, with complex brioche nuances, remarkable balance, ongoing elegance and a rich, refined, persistent finish. Drinking Window: 2021-2026. (3/25/21)"
92 points Tyson Stelzer (The Champagne Guide): "(100% Bopuzy and Ambonnay pinot noir; 2013 base vintage with reserves from 2011, 2010, 2008, 20015 and 2002; 8g/L dosage). Clouet captures the full, exuberant stature of Bouzy pinot noir in this luscious, succulent and generous style. Ripe, sweet red cherry, wild strawberry and plum fruits of fleshy, expansive mouthfeel are backed by a fanfare of bottle-derived complexity of mixed spice, gingernut biscuits and toffee. It lingers very long, enlivened softly by the expressive chalk mineral definition of Bouzy. (2018-2019)"
91 points Stephan Reinhardt (Wine Advocate): "The NV Brut Grand Réserve Grand Cru is a pure Pinot Noir from Bouzy. It's pure, fresh, fine and aromatic on the nose and round and delicate on the palate. The fruit-intense finish is chalky-mineral and stimulatingly fresh in its salty finesse and elegant yeastiness. Nice lemon juice flavors give an extra kick of refreshment. This is a picture-book NV Brut. No indication of disgorgement given. Drink: 2021-2024. (4/22/21)"
