94 PTS CONNOISSEURS' GUIDE. Once again, Le Reve emerges at the top of the ratings; has an impeccable adherence to the crisp, buoyant Blanc de Blancs style; aromas a mix of sweet citrus and yeast.

Powerful yet still elegant; expressing an array of citrus flavors, and tropical fruits with just the right amount of toastiness; the finish is racy and long.
