| 90 points, Robert Parker's The Wine Advocate: "The NV Brut Grande Reserve offers up layers of mineral-infused red fruits on a silky, mid-weight frame, with gorgeous length and a refined, subtle mousse. This impeccable, elegant wine shows terrific overall balance as well as complexity. I loved it. Andre Clouet is based in Bouzy, a village where Pinot Noir speaks with great eloquence, as is evident in these superb, pedigreed Champagnes." (AntoniCuvees.como Galloni)
Decanter, 90 points: "This extremely good value, all-Pinot Noir Champagne comes exclusively from grand cru vineyards. While it is packed with ripe pear and apricot fruit aromas, it is lifted by citrus and white flower notes. Complex and forward in style, with some biscuity characters and a long, persistent finish. With a price tag of less than ??30, no doubt this is one of the best value Champagnes out there."
100% Pinot noir blend of 33% of solera reserve, 2010 and 2011 juices respectively. Dosage: 9 gram per bottle.
