- TASTING NOTE: The NV Brut Cuvée de Réserve Grand Cru (base 2022) is a very serious wine. Deep, layered and super-expressive, the 2022-base edition is terrific. It offers notable breadth throughout. Tangerine peel, candied ginger, spice and baked apple tart are some of the many notes that are front and center. I admire the wine's sheer presence. This release is a bit exuberant but also very easy to like. The Cuvée de Réserve is 50% 2022 and 50% the previous year's blend. Dosage is 5.7 grams per liter. Disgorged: July 2024. (Drink between 2025-2031) 92 Points - Antonio Galloni, Vinous
- ABOUT THE WINE: In order to maintain the freshness and elegance of Chardonnay, they choose to ferment exclusively in stainless steel. All wines go through malolactic fermentation. The dosage varies, depending on the wine, though in general falls between 2-6 g/l.

ABOUT THE PRODUCER: Pierre Péters is a grower-producer located in the Cote de Blancs, and their reputation is founded upon their classic & sleek Blanc de Blancs Champagnes. Currently in its sixth generation, the estate is run by Rodolphe Péters, grandson of Pierre. The majority of their vineyards are located in Les Mesnil-sur-Oger, and the vintage Champagnes rely heavily on fruit from this vineyard. Their other vineyards are in the Grand Crus of Avize, Oger, and Cramant. They aim to showcase the subtleties of terroir in their wines and thus chose to farm sustainably and ferment in stainless steel. The Champagnes are considered racy, elegant, and mineral driven.
