97 points William Kelley (Wine Advocate): "Collin's NV Extra-Brut Les Jardin d'Ulysse (2016) continues to blossom in bottle with another year post-disgorgement, offering up aromas of citrus oil, toasted almonds, nutmeg and green apple. Medium to full-bodied, racy and chiseled, it unites all the vinous, elegantly muscular character one expects from this estate with the tension and cut derived from its predominantly north-facing exposition. With time on cork, it's becoming simultaneously more expressive and more electric. Drink: 2023-2043. (12/14/23)"

96+ points Audrey Frick (JebDunnuck.com): "This is the second release for the NV Champagne Blanc de Blancs Les Jardin d’Ulysse Extra Brut, the first having been produced in 2015, and it is a blend of Pinot Noir, Meunier, and Chardonnay from a single 1.55-hectare plot above the family house. It is 90% from the 2016 harvest and the rest reserve wine, aged for 60 months on the lees with 2.4 grams per liter of dosage. The nose is forward with wet stone, Mirabel plum, and pink peppercorn, and the wine is structured and broad on the palate, with savory herbs, pink grapefruit, and wild raspberry. It is tense and wound up a bit at this tasting and should allow another year in cellar to show its best. Drink: 2024-2044. 3500 bottles were produced. (11/7/22)"
