17/20 points Jancis Robinson: "(From two young brothers who are taking 200 years of Bouzy heritage to new heights through sustainable farming, old vines, and transparent winemaking. A blend of 22 individually vinified plots in Bouzy. Full malo. 70% Pinot Noir, 30% Chardonnay. 48 months sur lie. 30% reserve wine. Dosage 1.0 g/l. Disgorged May 2021.) Deep bronze colour. Surely lots of oak here? Rich on the nose. Almost sweet, which makes the Extra Brut all the more remarkable. Pretty full-on mousse. This is almost more like a pale red burgundy that happens to have bubbles. It has a suggestion of Pinot Gris perfume about it too. Quite a statement! And not a silly price for the distinctive character it offers. A labour of love? Not dense, though, so I wouldn't age this. Drinking Window: 2021-2023. "

Producer notes: "Les Parcelles offer plenty of Bouzy character by delivering a wine of depth and creamy richness. Flavors and aromas of toasted bread, pear nectar and honey unfold upon the palate. The finish is all smoke and lees and lingering toastiness. In combination, the wine is generous, complex and multi-faceted with broad appeal."
