93 Allen Meadows - Burghound

"A complex, strikingly elegant and airy nose features notes of baked broad, yeast, pear, green apple and lovely spice notes. The refined character continues onto the absolutely delicious flavors that possess a moderately exuberant mousse before terminating in a dry, crisp and slightly austere finish that is clean, refreshing and persistent. This knockout is drinking perfectly now and is highly recommended." (09/12)

93 Antonio Galloni - Vinous

"The NV (2010) Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Delos is a little richer, rounder and creamier than the Hugues de Coulmet. Almond, lemon, oil, dried pears and flowers all flesh out in a super-inviting gorgeous wine loaded with depth and personality. A creamy, expressive finish rounds things out in this gorgeous, beautiful Champagne. This is a fabulous showing from Moncuit. This bottle was disgorged in April 2013. Dosage was 8 grams per liter."

92 Wine & Spirits

"From old vines in Le Mesnil, this wine’s scents of creamery butter lend luscious richness, but those malolactic notes only add to the length of flavor, without masking its precision. This chardonnay has a grand pallor, almost goth in its truffle-like earthiness and the feminine delicacy of its mousse." (12/13)

91+ John Gilman - View from the Cellar

"Pierre Moncuit’s Grand Cru bottling of non-vintage Blanc de Blancs, which all hails from the family’s parcels in Mesnil-sur-Oger, is outstanding and still quite youthful as well. The very pure and classy bouquet wafts from the glass in a blend of pear, lemon, chalky minerality, bread dough, a touch of fresh nutmeg and a lovely topnote of spring flowers. On the palate the wine is pure, full-bodied, young and sports excellent mid-palate depth, with very refined mousse, brisk acids and superb length and grip on the beautifully-focused and classy finish. All this beauty needs is a year or two in the cellar to fully unwind. 2014-2030." (08/13)
