"Only winegrowers belonging to the “Club Trésors de Champagne” may produce a “Spécial Club” cuvée. Each creates their own blend using grapes harvested on their land, which is then submitted to the rigorous regulations and standards of ooenologues and winemakers expert in the Champagne tradition. Golden yellow hue with a hint of green, fine mousse. Fine nose: fresh, elegant, floral. Fresh and balanced palate; hazelnut, quince paste in the long finish. An elegant vintage." —winemaker Wine Anthology Team Review-A tremendous entry into the Champagne world!! A true example of all that could be accomplished from this region. A multi dimensional, multi layered Champagne boasting surreal complexity all for an amazing price. If you are a real Champagne lover you really must ask yourself, "Why haven't I tried this one yet"?? Cheers! |

"Chiquet's 2013 Brut Spécial Club Millesime is superb. Rich, ample and super-expressive, the 2013 boasts tremendous richness and breadth. All of the natural intensity of the year comes through in this striking, multi-dimensional Champagne. Tangerine oil, dried flowers, chamomile, almond and spice add complexity, but it is the wine's presence that stands out most. There is so much to like about the 2013. It's a fabulous wine. Disgorged: November, 2019." —Antonio Galloni, Vinous "This round and balanced Champagne is fresh and well-cut, with a softly creamy bead and delicate flavors of Anjou pear, candied ginger and lemon zest, biscuit and elderflower. Drink now through 2026. 100 cases imported." —Wine Spectator |
