Opinión de los críticos

The Wine Advocate:

The 2018 Les Monts Ferrés Blanc de Blancs derives from vines planted in the eponymous parcel in the 1er cru village of Vertus. It reveals a delicate, fine bouquet with aromas of fresh bread, acacia, spring flowers and ripe orchard fruits. Medium-bodied and perfectly balanced, it’s enveloping and structured with both racy and bright acidity. This is a tension-filled, ethereal Champagne with a dosage of 1.4 grams per liter.

Jeb Dunnuck:

Raised in stainless and second-pass oak barrel, the 2018 Champagne Les Monts Ferres is 100% Chardonnay from Vertus and pours a bright yellow reflective color. Savory and mineral in its initial profile, it opens to notes of lemon balm, raw honey, and fresh golden apple. The palate brings forward a good deal of intensity, but it also has a fruity character with a pithy structure. With notes almost reminiscent of Chenin Blanc-like chamomile (but not overtly oxidative), it retains lovely freshness. Drink over the coming 10-15 years. 1.4 grams per liter dosage. Disgorged February 2024.
