- 94 VINOUS,Antonio Galloni (11/22): „The 2015 Special Club is one of the more powerful, vinous Champagnes in this range. It offers up a beguiling mix of orchard fruit, white flowerd, chalk, mint and white pepper, all backed by considerable volume and substance. Another year or two in bottle should help this find even better balance. It´s a fine 2015. Disgorged: February, 2021“ 2022-2030

93 Punkte, TIM ATKIN, Tom Hewson Champagne 2022 Special Report: 70% Pinot Noir, 30% Chardonnay. „In search of elegance, Bara's Special Club bottling includes the highest percentage of Chardonnay of any of their wines. Seriously composed and harmonious for 2015, this does present the intensity of the year with preserved citrus and grippy red fruit skin, but there is real motion on the drying, dramatic palate that carries a rather fine mousse to a pure red-fruit finish. Bara are certainly amongst those that have cracked 2015.“

- GERHARD EICHELMANN: "Die Cuvee Special Brut Millesime Grand Cru besteht aus 70 % Pinot Noir und 30 % Chardonnay, alle Trauben kommen aus Bouzy.
Die Champagner von Paul Bara sind kraftvoll und konzentriert, immer geprägt vom Pinot Noir, Pinot Noir aus Bouzy. Sie zeigen eine bewundernswerte Konstanz über die jahre hinweg, sind dominant und nachhaltig, wirken immer sehr jugendlich, schon der Brut ohne Jahrgang, Brut Reserve genannt, zeigt beeidruckende Qualität."

- PETER LIEM champagneguide.net: "Bara joined the Club Trésors de Champagne, previously called the Club des Viticulteurs, after it was created in 1971, but he was initially reluctant to create a Spécial Club wine as he already had a prestige cuvée in the Comtesse Marie de France. He did end up making Spécial Club wines, of course, and today the Paul Bara Spécial Club is a blend of two-thirds pinot noir and one-third chardonnay, “always the lightest of our cuvées,” as Chantale Bara puts it. “It’s the least typical from the point of view of our terroir,” she says, because of its high chardonnay content, “but it’s always the most elegant.” 

Paul Bara’s champagnes are classic examples of Bouzy, with a full body and an ample, fruity ripeness thanks to pinot noir grown on the village’s warm, south-facing slopes. At the same time they demonstrate an unusual refinement and finesse, and despite the absence of malolactic, these champagnes are rarely aggressive - they tend to feel velvety in their depth of fruit and seamless in their integration of components from beginning to end. All of Bara’s wines are pure Bouzy and 100-percent grand cru, since they own no other parcels."
