98 Points - Decanter “This exudes opulence on a grand scale, from its rich, persistent mousse, through the surging complex flavours that wash luxuriously across the palate. With 62% Chardonnay showing radiant personality and assured citrus flavours, everything in this blend is perfectly balanced: bright fruit, mineral drive, great depth of flavour, refreshing acidity, extraordinary palate length and firm persistence.”

Stuart McCloskey - Tasted 21st September 2022 "Another killer bouquet from Ed, which bounds from the glass with barley sugar, peach, crisp apple and honeycomb. Buttered toast, a faint whiff of smoke, apricot along with mocha emerge with further aeration. The bouquet represents House of Arras perfectly – not afraid to deliver on the ‘exuberant’ side.  The palate took me by surprise. Usually, the previous releases followed a similar path to the bouquet however, I sense a change in Ed’s winemaking style as this is more focused, super-bright, pure and incredibly precise. The palate-feel retains its sensual edge, but elegance plays the key role. Minerality, citrus supported by chalk-like extract brings this closer to Grand Cru Champagne than any other release I have sampled. The finish is incredibly long and finishes with the faintest kiss of saline… Cellaring: Youthful but incredibly welcoming, nonetheless. I would love to see this in ten years.
