NV Pierre Peters Champagne Grand Cru Reserve Oubliee Blanc de Blancs #156485418
Reviews 93 points Wine Advocate "Disgorged in December 2020 and based on the 2015 vintage (complemented by a perpetual reserve that dates back to 1988), the latest release of Peters's NV Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Reserve Oubliee offers up inviting aromas of crisp stone fruit, freshly baked bread, almond paste and dried white flowers. Medium to full-bodied, pillowy and enveloping, it's fleshy but incisive, with a beautifully refined pinpoint mousse and a long, creamy finish. It's great now, but it will be even better with a year or two on cork. (WK)"

About Pierre Peters
The uniqueness of their wines is owed to a distinct Chardonnay clone resulting from a generations-long mass selection. Paired with east-facing hillside vineyards and chalky soils, this yields wines of notable complexity, brimming with notes of exotic fruit, coffee, walnut, and butterscotch. The limited production "Cuvee Speciale Les Chetillons" is noteworthy among their offerings, a symbol of their exceptional craftsmanship.
Proprietor Rodolphe Péters, at the helm since 2008, has continued the tradition of producing sleek Champagnes. Their wines undergo malolactic fermentation, achieving a delicate balance of acidity and minerality. The blending process features a mix of vintage and reserve wines stored in an array of vessels, adding to the wine's distinct character.
Pierre Peters' Champagnes are not just meant for drinking; they are an essential addition to the discerning collector's cellar, promising an experience that evolves and deepens with age. With limited annual production, they encapsulate the allure of tradition, unique terroir, and skillful winemaking.
