Robert Parker - 92 Points

"With a dosage of six grams per liter, the NV Blanc de Blancs from Barons de Rothschild offers up a delicate, citrusy bouquet with aromas of spices, lemon oil, herbs, pastry and spring flowers. Medium-bodied, enveloping and round, it has a charming, perfumed core of fruit with an ethereal, saline and penetrating finish."

Antonio Galloni - 92 Points

"Pale yellow.  Orange zest, lemongrass, jasmine and chalky minerals on the perfumed nose, with a hint of white pepper adding lift.   Juicy, mineral-accented citrus and orchard fruit flavors are fleshed out by suggestions of melon and honey, putting on weight with air while maintaining vivacity.  Spicy and focused on the very long, mineral-driven finish, which leaves chalky mineral and floral notes behind. "
