Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate
The NV Brut Nature Reliance is a blend of 80% Pinot Meunier with 16% Pinot Noir and 4% Chardonnay based on the vintages 2011 (90%) and 2010 (10%). With intense yellow-fleshed fruit and sweet cherry aromas with spicy and vinous flavors, this is a lean yet very complex, long, firmly structured and elegant Champagne with a long, intense yet still a bit austere and very tensioned finish. It probably needs some time to gain more finesse, but the potential is enormous. This should be great with food, especially raw fish and even matured cheese. Disgorged in June 2016; tasted April 2018.
