Popped and poured. The wine appears a light straw color with a moderate mousse. Notes of lemon bar, brioche, chalky minerals. On the palate the wine is dry confirming the notes on the nose. Medium plus acid. Citrus, chalky mineral finish. A lovely aperitif. No disgorgement data. — 4 months ago

Excellent, luscious Burgundy 2018.
Dark red, silky smooth, good fruit, touch of smoke and leather. Rich, unctuous mouth feel and pleasant finish.

The NV Brut Grand Cellier is bright, effusive and wonderfully charming. White flowers, chalk, mint and lemon confit give this mid-weight, nervy Champagne tons of energy. All the elements are so nicely put together. I especially like the energy and crystalline purity here. There are a lot of terrific wines in this range, but the Grand Cellier is quintessentially Vilmart. This release is based on 2019, with the addition of reserve wines from 2018. Dosage is 7 grams per liter. Disgorged: May 2022. (Antonio Galloni, Vinous, May 2023) — 4 months ago
