"White juice from white grapes (Chardonnay) harvested by hand, this wine reveals all the know-how of the Veuve Fourny house blended from different plots, and from different harvests: purity, finesse and elegance. An ideal companion for your aperitifs, it is a Champagne for pleasure that combines creaminess and sharpness with a saline finish. It will bring out the best in Sushi and sashimi." - House Notes
"Delicate, focused and delicious, showing aromas of baked apples, pears and sweet baking spices. Medium-bodied with fine bubbles. Lively but with substance and volume. Driven and poised." - 94 Points, Kevin Davy, JamesSuckling.com
"Delicate despite the oak influence. A very interesting combo! And a very well-judged blend. Gently rather than aggressively sparkling." - 17/20 Points, Jancis Robinson MW
"Almost entirely from Veuve Fourny's home village of Vertus, this is a model entry-level blanc de blancs, subtle, layered and energetic. White nectarines, blossom and pear lead with pretty, inviting delicacy, with an undertone of sourdough complexity riding a supple, silky texture." - 92 Points, Tom Hewson, Decanter
