Duval-Leroy's phenomenal bubblies have been our house favorites for a number of years, offering quality and value where other Champagne houses concentrate on ad campaigns and market share. What's the secret? As one of the few remaining family-run, large-scale production Champagne houses, Duval-Leroy maintains a level of control over their vineyards that results in better bubbly across the board. This non-vintage Brut is our go-to bottle of bubbles when it absolutely has to be Champagne and it can't go over budget. This Champagne boasts plenty of citrus and creamy hazelnut aromas and flavors for a price that leaves enough in the bank to splurge on more important things like crystal flutes and caviar. |

Wine Spectator
A big, full-bodied bubbly, featuring graphite, toast, lemon and nut aromas and flavors. Balanced, with an assertive finish. Will improve with a few months of cellaring. Drink now through 2009. 35,000 cases made. Score: 93.—Bruce Sanderson,

Wine Enthusiast
A full style of wine, with a touch of toast. This is rich, with flavors of white fruits as well as a layer of acidity that comes through. An attractive wine from a firm that is on the way up. Imported by Duval-Leroy Imports. Score: 89.—Roger Voss,
