A seamless Champagne, with precision balance, delivering a finely meshed range of poached pear and quince, candied lemon peel, salted Marcona almond, oyster shell and white blossom notes. Encased in a swathe of plush texture, the fine china–like spine of acidity provides graceful definition through to the long, minerally finish. Drink now through 2035.

With 2019 as its base and 23% reserve wine, the NV Champagne Blanc Singulier is also entirely Chardonnay but has more crispiness and freshness than the 2018. Much more forward in the glass, it has fantastic structure, with a more chiseled feel and a chalky texture. There’s a more crystalline energy to the 2019, which offers notes of sea spray and crushed oyster. Long and the palate, it’s going to age well over the coming 15-20 years. Drink 2025-2045.

The NV Blanc de Blancs Blanc Singulier (2019 Édition) is surprisingly tight for a Champagne from a vintage marked by severe heat spikes that I witnessed in person. I imagine that will stand it in good stead over the coming years, but for now, readers will have to be patient. Bristling citrus, floral and mineral inflections race across the palate, brightened by the no-dosage style and a search for vibrancy in the wine. This release is a blend of 77% 2019 and 23% perpetual reserve. Bottled with no dosage.

Created in response to climate change, ths Chardonnay, mainly from the 2019 vintage, gives a seriously rich Champagne. It is toasty with zero dosage, are for Ruinart, giving a tight, spicy character. A citrus aroma indicates a freshness. Drink this ripe wine now.

A focused, bone-dry blanc de blancs that is showing notes of crushed stone, blanched almond, lemon and white grapefruit. Lively and bright, with silky bubbles. 100% chardonnay, 77% from 2019 with 23% perpetual reserve wine started in 2018. 0g/L dosage. Drink now.
