Expert Review
91 Rating – Allen Meadow’s Burghound
“(Disgorged January, 2008 – 80% pinot noir with 70% from ’05 and 30% ’04 and 20% chardonnay, all from ’05 fruit). An expressive nose that is beginning to display the initial vestiges of age with a mildly oxidative and yeasty nose that delivers fine complexity that carries over to the fresh, zesty and utterly delicious flavors that are supported by firm but not aggressive effervescence and a slightly toasty finish. This is lovely and quite vinous. It is perhaps not quite as elegant as the best here but I quite like the style.” Wine review by Burghound, October 2009

“78% pinot noir and 22% chardonnay; disgorged April 17, 2009) Pale yellow with tiny bubbles. Intensely perfumed aromas of lemon, red berries, fresh sage, green cardamom and smoky minerals. Tightly wound, focused and very pure, offering lively blood orange, redcurrant and orchard fruit flavors and good stony lift. Surprisingly concentrated for a light-bodied wine, finishing with tangy florality and cling.” Wine review by Stephen Tanzer, December 2009
90 Rating – Wine Advocate
“The NV Brut Premier Cru Cuvee de Reserve is a brilliant, focused wine laced with considerable nuance, complexity and poise. Flowers, white peaches and minerals define the pointed, vibrant finish. The Cuvee de Reserve is 80% Pinot Noir and 20% Chardonnay, both from Mareuil-sur-Ay, 60% 2007, 20% 2006 and 20% 2005, bottled with 8 grams of dosage. This is L118, disgorged March 12, 2010. Anticipated maturity: 2010-2014. I was very impressed by what I tasted from Hebrart this year. From top to bottom this is a fabulous set of wines.” Wine review by the Wine Advocate, January 2011
