94 points Decanter: "Toasty and yeasty aromas dominate on the first nose, with swirling smoky intrigue. It’s full and rich on the tongue, with grilled brioche and creamy intensity paired with bruised apple skin and mashed apple flesh. Custard and viennoiserie characters give weight and body, while the finish perks up with bitter nut skin and greengage freshness. This is a Brut NV to stock up on, as the complexity is impressive for the price. An all-round winner. Drinking Window: 2022-2030. (Mar 2022)"
92 points Antonio Galloni (Vinous): "The NV (2018) Les Prémices is soft and open-knit, which makes it a fine choice for drinking now and over the next decade. Orchard fruit, mint and yellow flowers open effortlessly in the glass. Vinification and aging in steel keeps the flavors brisk. Les Prémices, one of the recent additions in this range, is equal parts Pinot Noir, Meunier and Chardonnay. Drinking Window: 2023-2030. (May 2023)"
An equal blend of Pinot Noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier. Aged 36 months on the lees. 1.g/L dosage.
