Robert Parker’s Wine Advocate
COATES & SEELY BLANC DE NOIRS ‘LA PERFIDE’ 2014
94
“Aromas of buttery pastry, minty orchard fruit, mandarin oil and subtle hints of honeycomb. Medium to full-bodied, vinous and complete, it’s seamless and intense, with a pinpoint mousse, racy acids and a long, flavorful, elegantly saline finish. This superb wine displays real character and interest.”
COATES & SEELY ROSÉ NV

“Wafting from the glass with notes of crisp orchard fruit, raspberries, pomelo, rhubarb and white flowers, it’s medium to full-bodied, pillowy and precise, with an elegantly fleshy core of fruit, bright acids and a chalky finish. This is one of the finest English Sparkling wines on the market today.”
COATES & SEELY BRUT RESERVE NV
89
“Offering up aromas of crisp orchard fruit, warm biscuits, honeycomb and plums, it’s medium-bodied, with fine depth at the core and a pillowy mousse. Still quite tightly wound, this is a fine effort that will be even better with another year on cork.”

“Clear and pretty strawberry aromas with some citrus and apple notes, following through to a full body with a creamy, layered texture and medium-fine bubbles. Fruity but refined finish. Rather dry at the end. Four years on the lees and one year in bottle.”
COATES & SEELY ROSÉ NV
95
“Sliced peach and citrus fruit with some strawberry and cherry. Undertones of cookies and praline. It’s full-bodied with plenty of fruit, yet not overdone. White-pepper undertones. Minerally. Dry finish. Pie crust, too. Iron tone to the aftertaste.”

“Extremely pretty apple and lemon-curd aromas with some honeydew-melon undertones. Hints of bread dough. Full-bodied with plenty of fruit, a layered texture and a creamy finish. Fruity, yet tight and focused.”
