93 points, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate Disgorged in July 2018, the new release of Gonet-Medeville's NV Brut Premier Cru Blanc de Noirs is showing very well, offering up an appealing bouquet of crisp golden orchard fruit, honeycomb, warm biscuits and dried white flowers. On the palate, it's full-bodied, broad and vinous, with ripe but racy acids, good depth at the core and a delicate mousse. Concentrated and structured, another year on the cork will be rewarded by additional complexity, even though this is approachable now.

91 points, Wine & Spirits This is 100 percent pinot noir, from 7.5 acres of chalk soils; a portion of the wine (30 percent) is vinified in old oak casks. Youthfully tense, even as it is generous and round, this wine’s powerful structure doesn’t detract from its fine bubbles. The pinot comes across in scents of strawberries and cinnamon, a match for wood-roasted oysters.

90 points, Wine Spectator This lively Champagne is creamy in texture, with a tang of salinity layered with subtle notes of black cherry, orange zest, slivered almond and toast. Disgorged December 2014.
