Champagne Grande Réserve Bouzy Grand Cru Brut Flaschengärung

Lobenberg: Kräftig und üppig, dabei sehr cremig, milde Säure, tolle Perlage, sehr intensiv und ausdrucksstark. Man könnte ihn glatt dekantieren. Kein Markenchampagner kann diesen extrem guten Stoff qualitativ erreichen. Traumhaft sahnige, cremige Apfelnote, Nüsse und Birne im Nachhall, unendlich charmant und everybody's darling. Einzigartig in dem Preisbereich. 94/100

-- Jeb Dunnuck: A perfumed nose carries notes of sandalwood and citrus that carries over to the delicious, generous, even lush medium-bodied flavors that offer excellent complexity and culminate in an attractively dry finish that stops just short of being bone dry. This is a lovely effort that could easily be enjoyed now or held for another 3 to 5 years, depending on personal preference. 92/100 --

-- Falstaff: Helles Goldgelb, Silberreflexe. Feine Kräuterwürze, zart nussig, dezente gelbe Fruchtnuancen, ein Hauch von Ananas und Pfirsich, rotbeerig unterlegt. Straff, engmaschig, feine nussige Nuancen, rassige Säurestruktur, mineralisch im Abgang, etwas Haselnuss im Finale, ein sehr vinös angelegter, vielschichtiger Speisenbegleiter. 94/100

-- Parker: 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. Tasted with Jean-François Clouet's German importer in Bremen. 91/100

-- 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. 93/100

-- 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. 92/100
