Crisp apple and white-fruit flavors come together with a tight structure and a pure line of freshness. Drink from 2023. - Roger Voss, Wine Enthusiast. Disgorged with five grams per liter dosage, Moët's 2013 Extra Brut Grand Vintage is a real success, wafting from the glass with aromas of pear, fresh bread, Meyer lemon, nougat and white flowers. Medium to full-bodied, chiseled and fine-boned, with an enveloping core of bright, vibrant fruit and a pretty pinpoint mousse, it concludes with a precise, penetrating finish. Incisive but not austere, it's an impressive effort, reflecting good levels of maturity in this cool, late harvest. It's as fine a rendition of this cuvĂ©e as I can remember tasting. - William Kelley, Wine Advocate. This elegant Champagne displays citrus, mineral and toast character in equal measure, with bright notes of preserved lemon and verbena layered with smoke, chalk, brioche and nut flavors. The interplay is backed by deftly knit acidity, riding the fine and creamy mousse through to the lingering finish. Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. Disgorged May 2019. Drink now through 2030. - Alison Napjus, Wine Spectator. A creamy-textured Champagne with fine bubbles that are numerous and textural. It's full-bodied and rounded with lovely bread dough and cooked apple, as well as just a hint of stone and mineral. It's long, dry and satisfying at the finish. 41% chardonnay and 38% pinot noir, the rest pinot meunier. Drink now. - James Suckling. The 2013 Blanc Grand Vintage is bright, focused and wonderfully vibrant. Lemon peel, crushed rocks, mint and white pepper lend notable brightness to this chiseled, finely cut Champagne. The 2013 is just a bit compact today. Perhaps it will gain body with time in bottle. - Antonio Galloni, Vinous Media. |
