Ratings: Gault Millau 16.5/20, Guide Revel 16/20, RVF 15/20, Bettane & Desseauve 14/20
“This Pinot Noir-based champagne lacks the classic aniseed notes, but offers pronounced red fruit flavors. The texture is silky on the palate, yet light and airy. It is an original champagne, shaped by the vineyard that produces it...” (Guide to Champagnes and Other Sparkling Wines - Revel 2012) 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.
