Small-grower Champagne, 100% Pinot Noir aka Blanc de Noir from Grand Cru vineyards in the Bouzy subregion. This Grand Réserve has a generous 4 years aging on lees and provides outstanding value!

"It’s always puzzled me that the remarkable, terroir-expressive champagnes of André Clouet never seem to come up among the rockstar growers of Champagne. And yet on the basis of his current cuvées, I have again anointed this little grower in the grand cru village of Bouzy among the top six growers in Champagne. This of course places him among the top sparkling growers on earth. My scores rank him equal to Dom Pérignon, Louis Roederer and Taittinger. And that’s mighty company!"

"This extremely good value, all-Pinot Noir Champagne comes exclusively from grand cru vineyards…No doubt this is one of the best value Champagnes out there."
Antonio Galloni, Vinous (NV)
"I was only able to taste one new release from Andre Clouet this year. The NV Brut Grande Reserve emerges from the glass with layers of hazelnut, pear, spice and dried flower aromas. This rich, creamy wine impresses for its balance and sheer richness. I loved it."
