Based on the 2015 vintage and disgorged in December 2020 with seven grams per liter dosage, the NV Brut Grand Cru Perle Noire delivers notions of honeyed apples, pear, smoke and fresh bread. Full-bodied, vinous and muscular, with a fleshy core of fruit and a pillowy mousse, it's a serious, concentrated Blanc de Noirs that, to my taste, could have flourished with a touch lower dosage. - William Kelley

Ripe and generous with plenty of pear fruit and some bread dough aromas this has good depth and weight, the animating mousse and moderate acidity easily balancing this. 100% pinot noir that’s mainly from the 2019 vintage with reserve wines from 2018 and 2012. Went into the bottle in June 2020 and was disgorged in December 2022. Just 6.5 g/l dosage. Drink now. - Stuart Pigott
