Medium to full straw-yellow colour, and a developed, complex, mellow bouquet showing some depth of aged material. Toasted bread Champagne character. The taste is smooth and dry, savoury and imbued with mushroom and bready yeast-matured pinoty complexities. I like this, although it's not especially refined or delicate. The finish is rich, soft and clean -- and satisfying. 91 points, Huon Hooke (huonhooke.com).

Aromas of citrus, flowers, hazlenut and smoke. On the palate a lighter more delicate style of Champagne. Quite minerally/chalky with citrus and soda water flavours. Not sweet either. Fine persistent bead. Well balanced with nothing out of place. Dry minerally finish. Very easy to drink. An excellent standing-up Champagne. 91 points, Gary Walsh (winefront.com.au).

A nice edge of reductive complexity on the nose here, some grapefruit, pears, apples and fine toasty nuances. They've got this market-leading NV in terrific shape at the moment, really fresh. The palate delivers simple apple flavour and has a sweet gloss across the finish. 91 points, Nick Stock, Good Australian Wine Guide.
