Before it joins in the clamour of your celebrations and parties, champagne matures in silence. But you will certainly hear about it in the press. A few quotations from connoisseurs

Comte de Dampierre Family Reserve : 95/100. Wonderful harmony in this rich, toasty Champagne. Seamless and elegant, it evokes citrus and honey, ending on a walnut note. The structure i firm, supporting the flavors and raw-silk texture. Fabulous length. At his peak. Drink now through 2003." Wine Spectator

«This champagne house has reached new heights and we fell in love with the Rosé «Œil de Perdrix» and the «Cuvée des Ambassadeurs».
Gault Millau, Guide Le Vin.

"The rich, toasty non-vintage Blanc de Blancs steals the show; the recently released 1988 is a vibrantly fruity wine of great finesse"
Tom Stevenson - Decanter

« This is a Blanc de Blancs as it should be : straw with a tinge of green. Fine and elegant. A flowery aroma, with a vibrant taste. A good wine».
"L'oeil de Perdrix, light pink in colour with a fine developed nose. Initially full, with a lingering fruitiness, this champagne looks for finesse and more than achieves its aim».
Guide Hachette

"Brut Grande Année : A very complete and enjoyable champagne. Taste dry, almost delicate in texture, with mature flavors of toast, vanilla and honey. Rich in spice and fruit flavors, with a lingering finish."

"Highly recommended. We love it."
London Wine

«As for the «Prestige», this appealed enormously to all those, who like me think that a great champagne reaches its zenith at around 10 years».
Michel Piot - chroniqueur gastronomique au Figaro
