Jeb Dunnuck (93)The 2016 L'Evangile Blason de l'Evangile is another brilliant second wine that delivers the goods. Showing a more upfront, fruit-loaded, opulent style, it gives up tons of cassis fruits, tobacco, incense, dried herbs, and graphite. With no hard edges, a full-bodied, rounded, sexy texture, and a great finish, it's a sexy, sexy Pomerol to drink over the coming 10-15 years, if not longer. |

Decanter (94)Expressive nose filled with softly perfumed red fruit with touches of blackcurrant and black cherries. Great acidity, prominent and clear giving such freshness on the palate. Feels quite delicate, lightly framed, not a huge volume in the mouth but still densely flavoured. Each element is well presented with integrated tannins and a lovely vein of almost creamy mint chocolate-laced blackcurrants and a wet stone minerality that lingers. |

Wine Advocate (94+)The 2012 Brut "B" was only disgorged in March 2019, but it's already very promising, bursting with notes of smoky citrus rind, confit citrus, peach, honeycomb and ginger. On the palate, it's full-bodied, muscular and concentrated, in keeping with both the house style and the vintage, and it's still quite tight knit, chalky and structured at the core, with lively acids and good length on the finish. |

Experience the exceptional Boerl & Kroff Brut 1996, a sparkling triumph assured to tantalise the palate of genuine wine aficionados. Expertly cultivated in the prestigious vineyards of Aube, Champagne, France, this gem represents the meticulous craftsmanship of its producers- Michel Boerl and Danielle Kroff. The unique vinification process is marked by a singular pursuit of perfection with every grape individually overseen for quality. The Boerl & Kroff Brut 1996 exudes a powerfully inviting nose of brioche and honey, concluded by a brisk lemon zest finish. Illuminating the glass with a delicate straw tone, this wine is reputed for its well-balanced acidity that seamlessly harmonises with a full-bodied texture. The complexity of this cuvée is amplified by its impressive ageing potential. Imbibe the undeniably distinct Boerl & Kroff Brut 1996- a true embodiment of an esteemed lineage in fine wine. |

Wine Advocate (97)Interestingly, the highlight of this tasting was not the 1996 or 1995 but rather the 1998 Brut, perhaps because the wine is actually fully mature. Bursting with a complex bouquet that marries scents of mandarin, peach, vanilla pod and beeswax with nuances of English walnuts and fresh mushrooms, it's a full-bodied, rich and expansive Champagne that's concentrated and gourmand but impressively racy and precise despite its textural, muscular style, concluding with a long and sapid finish. I suspect the 1998 will be shorter lived than the 1996 and 1995—though of course it's certainly in no danger of decline any time soon—but it would be my pick for drinking today. |

Wine Advocate (95+)Most of the 2002 Brut from Boërl & Kroff was bottled in 750-milliliter bottles, so only 800 magnums were produced—a surprising decision, given the vintage, and one Sabaté now laments. Offering up a rich but youthful bouquet of waxy lemon rind, mandarin, warm biscuits, candied peel and honeycomb, this is a full-bodied, vinous Champagne with considerable structure and concentration, with its creamy and muscular profile exemplifying the house style. Long and powerful, it's a terrific wine that will delight admirers of old fashioned Champagne. |
