Dinner at 312 Fish Market (Chicago, IL): Dirty and funky. Way too mushroomy too.

Recently arrived from Pol Roger’s cellars. Disgorged in 2013. The was simply magnificent. There was a saline seaspray note along with heady orchard fruits and a suggestion of marmalade. It has plenty of spice and brioche. It was full and textural, with wonderful shape and volume. It had such great acid drive and a finish that was chalky and so long. There’s still a light prickle from remaining bubbles.

Now perfectly ripe champagne with everything you can expect from this appelation and producer. Rich, complex and briochy to drink now or in 1-3 years. Well done!

Last minute wine lunch (Gary's): Drank about 1/6th the bottle over 1 hour. This is consistent with my experineces of a good bottle of vintage Pol Roger brut. Citrus, apple,l pear, toasty, powerful, good energy and lift. I'm happy to have 3 left.

Wine Lunch (Gary's Place, Hudson, WI): Light gold color. Drank a glass over 40 minutes. This was quite reminescent of a bottle from magnum a year ago. Lovely toast, almond, roasted filberts, golden apple, ripe, lemon, chalk, and subtle red frut. Broad and vinous 93+ to 94pts.

Interesting Champagne, a couple of years ago we had a comparison of the white label Pol Roger and this one. All agreed that the more basic white label (a.k.a. Reserve) is outscoring the Vintage.

This time to my surprise, the Vintage beats the Reserve by a bit. The roundness of the Reserve was a bit boring - but don’t get me wrong, both are super-sexy.

N. Elegant, Brioche, Almond but also herbs and mineralic notes (wet stone in the sun), nice complexity underneath

T. Boom! Really cool acidity (5 days open) and great complexity, still a curvy beauty with also some butter hints and oak, all very well built in!

I usually find Winston Churchill a bit too big for my taste. For the 1996, however, the style works well with the racy acidity of the vintage.

The best bottle yet, this builds on my previous notes but is just richer, deeper, and more expansive - without losing any energy or finesse. Apple pastry, lemon curd, creme pat, toasted almonds with an extremely fine mousse. Lovely as an aperitif in this case.

Bello, in fase evolutiva ma ancora splendido. Il naso passa dalle note fruttate a quelle fungine , che si rivelano eleganti e preponderanti. Effervescenza elegante e ben chiara, notevole lunghezza, la solita proverbiale eleganza. Un grande champagne, ma la 2000 bevuta qualche settimana fa con la stessa compagnia vince il confronto all’unanimità.

Pale lemon. Light and fine mousse. Green apple, pear, lemon zest, white flowe, brioche. Off dry, high acidity that nicely balances the fruit and generous dosage, long finish. Easy drinking - not the most complex but fine and elegant.

Sadly unable to tell base vintage, but website says it is an equal blend of the classic champagne grape varieties, aged at least 3 years on lees, and then at least 3 months in bottle before release - up to 4 years in total. So this was probably a 2019 base wine.

Dracks för att fira att huslånet betalts av. Först till en fransk bondost vilken gav en fin balans. Därefter till en Soupe de petits pois som även den passade bra. Syran är nu silkeslen och de nötiga brödiga tonerna som jag gillar har verkligen kommit fram. Har en flaska till av årgången, den kommer sannolikt att hålla ytterligare flera år.

Yellow colour with a hinge of pink.

Nose is dominated by yellow apples with some brioche, quite rich and open.

On the palate the wine appears very rich, fully mature. but still only secondary aromas. Appears younger than 22 years, but may have developed slower in the magnum format?

All in all, very good and appoacheble now

Good development.
Starting to mature.
Nose with a touch of nuts and some smoke, bread and bakers yeast, white flowers (lilacs), and sweet lemon drops.
Palate is creamy and full bodied, ripe apples, fudge, bread, touch of spicy smoke and honey dipped nuts.
A very good house Champagne.

I will add to the comments of Therealpepe and XavierAurbach in scoring this as an excellent, elite wine. I too reviewed it earlier, Christmas Day 2020 (see below) and at the time I rated it 93 with a potential to go to 95. Still true. Color today is soft pink, salmon. The nose is wonderfully fragrant even right out of the bottle with notes of strawberry, rose petal, blood orange all melding to provide an incredible freshness. As many other note, the mousse is very light and almost hard to see after about five minutes, but in no way does this subtract from the wine since it’s still present on the palate. This finish is equally complex, still-present acidity provides a nice structure, framing the fruit and elongating the palate. Just love it.

This is lovely, fresh and full of energy. Not as many nutty and toasty notes as I would like, but it’s clearly just at the start of a long drinking window. First of a case of 6 for me. The remainder are still in storage, and I think I might leave them there for a good while.

Nice champagne but does not compare to the balance of the same vintage Winston Churchill cuvée but did not expect it to. The latter gave me a permanent smile all evening. There was an element of citrus pith and chalk in the finish that was a little obtrusive.

Pale straw colored, nose immediately apparent right out of the bottle. Rich on the palate: brioche, pie crust, yeast, sherry, even a hint of grapefruit? Fine acidity and real structure here. Slow ox over two hours, developing the whole time and kept improving the whole time. Lovely bottle, enjoyable now, but my guess is that it will improve with time. Given the structure this is a wine I'd want to pair with food.

金色的酒液和若有似无的气泡,昭示酒已经进入了完全成熟期。香气同样以成熟浓苹果和酵母、奶油等衍生香气为主,还有淡淡的菌菇气息,果味和复杂度略有不足,但在口中有很好的集中度,浓郁持久。

An intense nose including lemon white blossom and a touch of marzipan. Lemon and apple on palate with excellent concentration and a nice saline element.

This was certainly very good but I wouldn't call it "great" - I rated the 2012 Comtes and particularly 2012 Dom Perignon significantly higher. Also paled somewhat in comparison to the other wines enjoyed on this particularly special evening...

A bottle from the BB&R Family Reserves
