Wine Advocate, 96 Points

"Chartogne-Taillet’s 2020 Blanc de Blancs Chemin de Reims, disgorged in October 2024 with a dosage of 2.5 grams per liter, is another success. It opens with vivid aromas of fresh apricot, grapefruit zest and jasmine, mingling with a note of roasted hazelnut. As ever, the fruit is drawn from the south-facing vineyard, planted between 1986 and 2005 in sandy, iron-rich terrain. Vinification takes place in seasoned 228-liter barrels (which Chartogne purchase new), with a modest proportion of new oak. While the 2019 vintage leans toward a richer, almost Pinot Noir-like side stylistically, the 2020 is a paragon of Blanc de Blancs: taut, mineral-driven and electrifying. The palate is tightly wound and medium- to full-bodied, with mouthwatering acidity, ample chalky extract and a long, precise finish."

"The 2020 Extra Brut Chemin de Reims is gorgeous. In 2020, the Chemin de Reims is especially airy, with an explosive bouquet, mid-weight structure and fabulous balance. It is perhaps less rich and concentrated than the 2019, but so classy and also more approachable. The aromatics are really popping today. Chardonnay shines here. Dosage is 2.5 grams per liter."
