Ratings: Guide Revel 17/20, RVF 14.5/20, Gault Millau 14/20, Bettane & Desseauve 14/20
“This 2002 vintage cuvée gains finesse after a few seconds and opens up, revealing notes of quince paste, juicy pear, and beeswax. On the palate, dried fruit comes through, the mousse is fine and persistent, and the finish is slightly rich but flavorful. ” (Les Meilleurs Vins de France 2012 - Gault Millau). A great Champagne from a truly great vintage!! A rare cuvée , limited quantities!

Bettane & Desseauve
Rated 2 stars (A solid, recommendable wine, though slightly more consistent and uniform than the previous one)
About the estate:
Located on the hills above Épernay, the Janisson-Baradon estate is run by Richard Janisson and his two sons, Maxence and Cyril. The vineyard comprises 9 hectares of hillsides surrounding the Champagne capital, tended with care and attention. The Janissons have intelligently modernized the style of their wines, and once again this year, the single-vineyard selections stood out at the tasting, with champagnes of assertive character that retain the region’s characteristic suppleness. A sure bet.

Guide des Vins Gault & Millau
Estate rated 1*Star (High-quality production)
About the estate:
Founded in 1922 by Georges Baradon, a bottle-turner, and his son-in-law, Maurice Janisson, a cooper, the winery is still run by the Janisson family, who cultivate just over 9 hectares of vineyards on the western slopes of Épernay, in Chouilly and Brimont. The vineyard has been maintained through soil cultivation since 1997, without the use of any herbicides. Most of the vintages are a blend of equal parts Pinot Noir and Chardonnay.
