93 points James Suckling: "Vibrant fruit here, with peaches, apricots, lemons, pears, almonds and spicy anise notes. Fresh and crisp with very fine bubbles. Textured, with wonderful purity of fruit. 90% chardonnay and 10% pinot noir from 7 villages. Fruit 60% from 2019 and 40% from 2018. Bottled 2020. Disgorged May 2022. 5g/L dosage. Drink now. (7/18/22)"
93 points James Button (Decanter): "Agrapart describes this as its 'entry-level' wine, but it's far from your normal non-vintage Champagne. A blend of premier and grand cru grapes from two different vintages, its super-fresh, lemony nose segues into a tight, steely palate with delicious stone-fruit ripeness. It's light on its feet and very vital, with delightful juiciness balancing mineral inclusions. Very impressive. (Oct 2019)"
92 points Tyson Stelzer (The Champagne Guide): "(2015 base vintage; disgorged July 2018; 90% chardonnay, 10% pinot from the 7 crus of Avize, Oger, Cramant, Oiry, Avenay-Val-d'Or, Coligny and Vauciennes; 40% 2014 chardonnay from reserves; young vines of 20-40 years of age; full malolactic fermentation; 7g/L dosage). Agrapart's entry cuvée is glorious testament to the ability of his vineyards to tap minerality that brings freshness even in a vintage as generous as 2015--an admirable achievement for younger vinews from lesser sites. This is a ripe and approachable 7 Crus in a rich, fruity and immediate style, that Pascal aptly considers 'a wine to drink with friends'. It's a beautifully pure and fresh introduction of ripe pear, even hints of mandarin and fig, concluding with nicely balanced dosage. Just when you think the fruit is going to make it simple and round, its chalk minerality and acidity kick in on the end, running long and fresh, furnishing focus and refinement. (2020-2021)"
92 points Wine Spectator: "A well-cut Champagne, with a minerally underpinning and a pleasing tension to finely knit flavors of white cherry and Anjou pear, grated ginger and sliced almond. Plush and creamy on the lingering finish. Disgorged April 2020. Drink now through 2023. (12/15/20)"
