Philippe Perreault rated this wine as 81/100 with the following review:

This sparkling is made only of Pinot Noir (93%) and Pinot Meunier (7%).

Fine bubble, clear yellow color with aromas of hazelnuts and lemon.
This sparkling is fresh, sustainable and medium on the palata.

Pair it with a fish and chips.
Serve it at 5-6 degrees.
Enjoyable now.

Dry, refreshing, slightly Tart citrus zest, almond croissant, limestone minerality. Well balanced, integrated. Traditional Method. Tasting well on its own and paired wonderfully with a Belizian fried fish taco. Tasted June 2017. 91 Points. BespokeTastings




Natalie's Review

Chandon Blanc de Noirs, California, United States: This Californian sparkling wine producer is owned by one of Champagne's most revered wineries, Moët & Chandon, the same house that makes top-of-the-line Dom Pérignon. Chandon is actually no newcomer to the scene having been founded in the 1970s, and the first winery to make sparkling wine using the traditional Champagne method (Méthode Traditionelle). Blanc De Noirs This bubbly offers terrific value for the money; a great bottle to serve at small or larger gatherings given its taste: price ratio. Crisp, clean and dry with aromas of green apple and baked bread. Terrific! Drink: 2022-2024. 419374 13% D 750 mL  $32.95 Score: 92/100. May 20, 2022 Top Rated Sparkling Wine.

Unquenchable by Natalie MacLean

Natalie MacLean is a new force in the wine writing world ‐ a feisty North American answer to Hugh Johnson and Jancis Robinson. She can write beautifully about wine.

The Financial Times of London

There are very few people in the wine world who "get it" and Natalie is one of those who brings more fun to a buttoned-up and stodgy game.
