2008 Philipponnat Champagne Blanc de Noirs Brut 85 Points
France, Champagne
Milk and green apple on the nose. Quite full bodied, you can feel PN here. Didn't have enough precision or charm, just good.

2006 Philipponnat Champagne Grand Cru Cuvée 1522 Brut 86 Points
France, Champagne, Champagne Grand Cru
Smells of food and smoke, very few fruits, cold lemonde. Cold black cherries on the finish. Nothing special.

2005 Philipponnat Champagne Brut Clos des Goisses 89 Points
France, Champagne
Disgorged on 13.11.2014. No malolactic.
Very precise and well balance. No yeasty notes, a tiny bit of oak, round. Class evident, subtle and calm in style. Too young right now, give it several years in the cellar.Post a Comment / Do you find this review helpful? Yes - No / Report Issue

NV Drappier Champagne Blanc de Blancs "Signature" 89 Points
France, Champagne
Bubbles disappeared quite soon. Broad, but not overly so, typical PN character. Milky, soft, tender, like a round, soflty oaky, bubbly Chablis.

2002 Drappier Champagne Brut Millésimé Exception 91 Points
France, Champagne
Out of a Jeroboam. Mature, darker colour. Pronounced menthol and peppermint, this is a serious wine, not a simple bubbly.

Flight 4 (7 Notes)
1988 Lanson Champagne Noble Cuvée de Lanson Brut 93 Points
France, Champagne
Colour of a mature Champagne, but there's still quite a lot of bubbles. Very intense nose of salty butter, quince, some nuttiness, milk toffee, spices, may be some curry. Long and lively on the palate, multifaceted. Great development.

1995 Drappier Champagne Carte d'Or Brut 91 Points
France, Champagne
From magnum, disgorged March 2014. Similar colour as Lanson '88 we had before, but it was overall noticeably younger and fresher. Large share of PN makes it a serious food wine, med+ complexity, honey, lots of brioche, developps sweet aromas on the nose.

2002 Paul Bara Champagne Grand Cru Comtesse Marie de France 90 Points
France, Champagne, Champagne Grand Cru
Very fruity, typical red apple of PN, anise candy. Steely on the palate. Requires time to open up in the glass, excellent development. Becomes even more fruity and sweet.

Brut 0, base 2011, disgorged 2014, 2y on lees.
Meat, meat jelly, pickled patty pan squash, seems like low accidity. Very soft, bubbles disappear soon in the mouth. Vegetables, squash. Peculiar, difficult to rate.Post a Comment / Do you find this review helpful? Yes - No / Report Issue
NV Savart Champagne Calliope 90 Points
France, Champagne
This was late in the evening and my palate was tired. Seemed of an oxidative style, but fresh and with a very good mouthfeel.

1994 Luis Pato Baga Espumante 88 Points
Portugal
This is not a typical rose, more like a red wine with bubbles. Vinuous and quite fresh due to the bubbles, lots of red fruits, dried cherries, tart dried berries. A very interesting experience.

NV Jacquesson & Fils Champagne Cuvée No. 737 88 Points
France, Champagne
First bottle seemed flawed: Quite fat, exotic fruits, burnt brioche on the nose. Medium accidity, exotic fruits, tart finish.
Second bottle much fresher, light, pleasant creamy vanilla.

Precise like a cold steel, very clean and well balanced. Young at this moment, will surely evolve.
