93 Points! A graceful Champagne, with a satiny mousse, revealing ripe apricot, mirabelle plum, preserved lemon, white blossoms and a streak of salty minerality enriched by hints of toasted hazelnut and pastry cream, all framed by well-knit, chiseled acidity on the long finish. Disgorged March 2023. - Wine Spectator

94 Points! A sculpted Champagne, rich but still elegant, with well-honed acidity and a panoply of flavors set on the raw silklike mousse. Delivers grilled macadamia nut and biscuit, white cherry and nectarine fruit, crystallized honey, lime blossom, star anise and smoke accents. Long, salty finish. Chardonnay and Pinot Noir. Disgorged January 2023. Drink now through 2033. - Wine Spectator

91 Points! Based on the 2020 vintage, complemented by reserve wines from 2019, the latest rendition of Agrapart's NV Brut 7 Crus is charming and unusually giving at this early stage, offering up aromas of white flowers, sweet orchard fruit and ripe citrus, followed by a medium to full-bodied, ample and pillowy palate. - William Kelley, robertparker.com

93 Points! The NV Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Terroirs is an excellent introduction to the estate’s Chardonnays. Disgorged in August 2024 with three grams per liter dosage, it’s composed of 20% from the 2021 vintage (vinified in tank), 50% from 2020 and 30% from 2019, with half of the reserve wines aged on the lees in approximately 30-year-old demi-muids. Heavily based on Oger (around 40% of the blend), with the remainder coming from Oiry, Cramant and Avize, it’s already expressive, offering aromas of honeysuckle, nectarine, bread and fresh hazelnut. Medium to full-bodied with bright acidity and complemented by a pillowy mousse, it concludes with a long, sapid finish. - Kristap Karklins, robertparker.com

"Black raspberry, cassis, graphite, sappy flowers, and chalky minerality emerge from the glass. Beautifully balanced and elegantly textured, with polished tannins and impressive finesse. Another brilliant wine from the Bécot family that readers should snatch up."

92-94 Points Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider
"Flowers, licorice, dark cherries, and a hint of truffle create the perfume. Medium-bodied and loaded with sweet, creamy black cherries, plums, and chocolate. Produced from some of the oldest vines in the appellation, dating back to 1870."

92-94 Points Antonio Galloni, Vinous

Pure and incredibly polished on the palate, with medium to full-bodied richness, a silky, elegant mouthfeel, and a great finish. This château needs to be on everyone's radar."

"Medium-bodied, soft, fresh, and silky in texture. The fruits are ripe, sweet, vibrant, and already approachable. Enjoyable on release yet capable of evolving gracefully for two decades."
