"The NV Brut Blanc de Noirs Les Crayeres Grand Cru explodes from the glass with a range of Pinot aromas and flavors that is just breathtaking. Bright acids and beams of saline intensity offer striking contrast. Even though it has just been Disgorged: the Crayeres is just stunning. For readers who want to know what Pinot from Ambonnay tastes like well this is it. Hints of Mirabelle plum red plum and dried flowers linger on the substantial finish." -Vinous

"Reviewed by William Kelley Issue Date 30th Apr 2019 Source Issue 242 End of April 2019 The Wine Advocate The latest release of the NV Brut Blanc de Noirs Grand Cru Les Crayères is stunning wafting from the glass with pure and expressive aromas of ripe apples fresh peach toasted sesame and fresh pastry. On the palate it's full-bodied fleshy and powerful with a beautifully refined—even delicate—mousse a deep but open-knit core brisk acids and a long expansive and mouthwateringly lively finish. Despite its broad shoulders this is a supple expressive and charming rendition of Les Crayères that exemplifies how the greatest wines attain concentration without weight. Egly-Ouriet crafts some of my very favorite Champagnes and this bottle reminded me to buy more." -Robert Parker
