"Vivid yellow. Aromas of redcurrant, orange zest and white pepper, with a smoky quality in the background. On the palate, supple red berry and pit fruit flavors are given lift and cut by a hint of dusty minerals. Rich yet lively wine with solid finishing punch and lingering spiciness." -JR, Jan/2015
88 Points - Wine Spectator
"A crisp Champagne, with a salty, minerally underpinning to the flavors of crunchy pear, white peach, lemon pith and spring blossom. The firm, chalk-tinged finish is moderate in length. Drink now. 8,000 cases made, 1,000 cases imported." -AN, 11/12/20
88 Points - Wine Enthusiast
"Ellner's entry-level nonvintage is a blend of the three main Champagne grapes. It is ripe and full, with a creamy texture and balanced acidity. The texture is soft, with apple and citrus flavors and a zesty aftertaste. It is well balanced and ready to drink." -RV, 12/1/16
