2006 Wine

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 97 points: Created in 1964 as a tribute to the house’s founder, the youngest release is the 2006 Millésime Brut Cuvée Nicolas François, a blend of 60% Pinot Noir from premier and grand crus from the Montagne de Reims and the Grande...

jamessuckling.com, 95 points: Selected parcels in Avize, Cramant, Chouilly and Le Mesnil-sur-Oger chosen for power. This has a very impressive grilled hazelnut and gently toasty edge with dried lemon and clotted cream. The palate has immense...

Wine Enthusiast, 94 points: This is a dry style of wine, with great acidity and a tightly wrought texture. As with many Gosset Champagnes, this wine has had no malolactic fermentation, enhancing the freshness and crispness as well as the structure...

Decanter, 98 points: The Dom Perignon Rosé 2006 is simply amazing. Notes of raspberry, spices and mint jump from the glass in a seductive combination. The texture in the mouth is of precise, crystalline, laser-like tannins in an opulent...

Decanter, 97 points: Powerful, concentrated and seriously young tannins are closed tight around the pure, intense, dark, sweet fruits, followed by a deep undertow of liquorice, cloves and graphite. Extraordinary balance, polish and control...

Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, 98 points: This is a re-release of a wine that first hit the market some seven years ago. The Il Greppo estate did not make a Riserva in the 2011 vintage, and the 2006 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva is being reintroduced to the...

jamessuckling.com, 96 points: Extremely fleshy, fresh and exuberant with unashamedly expressive red cherries, raspberries and strawberries, with cinnamon and other baking spices, too. Sleek, vinous and tangy. A clever wine for the playful fruit...

TheWineCellarInsider.com, 92 points: Truffle, blackberry, smoke, menthol and herbs offer the aromatic profile. Soft and round textured for the vintage, the wine is approachable today with its fresh, sweet blackberry and cassis personality. Read more...

jamessuckling.com, 96 points: This is very tight and powerful with sliced pear and apple character. Some meringue pie too. Full-bodied, firm and persistent. Very tight. Gorgeous. Drink or hold.

Wine Spectator, 93 points: A blast of cherry, raspberry, mint and mineral aromas and flavors herald this focused, tensile red, which has ripe, sweet fruit, a firm structure, refinement and fine length. The finish is all spice now. Best from 2012...
