Magnum, three years after purchase. Super clean and citrussy. The ageing just takes the edge off, but retains a lovely vigour.

Sthlm Food & Wine Champagne-tastings (Älvsjömässan, Stockholm): (Late disgorged in 2022, 100% Chardonnay from Oger)
Lovely nose with butter, cream and butterscotch and opens up with some candied lemons as well and opens up with dark chocolate in a very pleasant way. Smoothing lemon acidity with an intense finish showing dark chocolate and yellow plums and leaving a lovely minerals saltiness on the lips as well
(Best 2022-2032)

WB Dinner in Santa Cruz (Home Soquel): So good. Concentration and bead are lovely. Creamy, mineral, great finesse on the palette. Long finish.

Överraskande god då jag inte brukar vara jätteimponerad av Launois standardcuvée men den här hade välbalanserad syra och fina mognadstoner. Enda negativa jag kan komma på är att den inte är superkrämig i moussen men en mycket bra champagne.

Annual Caroling & Chili Party (R&D's): Our last of the ‘02, a magnum, and upon opening it poured a light straw yellow color with a medium mousse. Apple and ripe pear elements in the bouquet with gingerbread and pear on the palate. A touch on the tart side upon opening, this improved a touch with air. Good, but not great, more than drinkable, and perhaps would have done better with food than on its own in the walk around tasting format tonight. 87+ pts.

4th time I have had this wine and my last bottle. Made from two plots of old vines planted before 1952, one in the grand cru of Oger called 'Chenys' and one in Mesnil called 'Derriere Maison'. Medium yellow color. Lower bead. Creamy texture and fuller body. Sharp acidity with citrus and steely white fruit notes. 92 points.

CWM Holiday Dinner - 2008 Champagnes (Pa Lian Burmese, Wheaton): Aromas of citrus, apple and baked bread with orchard fruit flavors dominating the palate. This too was better once it had been open a while, picking up an intriguing honeycomb quality to go with the abundance of orchard fruit. 92+ pts. (VM)

Surprisingly good, but simple. Not flat, but less effervescent than finer champagnes. Nutty, earthy with hint of ripe fruit.

Good solid BdB (I believe all of their wines are BdB from Mesnil sur Oger), maybe even slightly better than the "Vinum Dei" bottling? K&L Tent Champagne tasting.
Great pricing on this for a GC BdB. 90-91

Dinner at 90 Miles (Chicago, IL): Solid showing of this bottle; shows a hint of maturity but good chalkiness and plenty of 2008 acidity. Chewy minerality. For my palate, in a really good spot for drinking now.

Pale gold colour. Small and lively bubbles. Medium (+) and developing nose with ripe yellow apples, ripe lemon, brioche, butter, toast and bread dough. Medium (+) taste of ripe yellow apples, pear, ripe lemon, brioche, butter, toast, bread dough and wet stone. Long and dry finish. High acidity. Medium body. A very good NV Champagne with great fruitiness. Drink now or over the next five years. Goes well as an aperitif, or with shellfish.

Not familiar with this producer, but picked up some as I really enjoy the '08s. It was overall very enjoyable; green apple, lemon peel, pastry dough, and some orchard blossoms; good depth and still with plenty of energy.

Dinner at Triple Crown (Chicago, IL): Oxidative and biscuity, with lots of browning fruit. Definitely on its way out, but I can still appreciate the density here. This did seem to start falling apart with air.

I'm guessing a bit at the date. (I seem to do that a lot.) We had the Tutor and his awesome partner the Trainer over to celebrate Tutor getting his PhD. Lots of special things to celebrate, so we started with this. I've had this cuvee before, and it's reliably wonderful for the price. Hits your major champagne notes, toasty, crisp, smooth, lightly citrusy. Lately, I've been scoring some very nice deals on Champagne, but if you want a take-no-chances Champagne with a nice presentation, this is an excellent choice at a reasonable price.

A little darker than coral. Lovely earthy nose, bread dough, crème de cassis, spent yeast and a bit of citrus. Dry creamy, yeasty cherry flavours and a nice long dry finish.

Bought in 2020 from K and L.

Light lemon color with some greenness
Fun comparative with Grassl 1855 vs liberté glasses
In 1855 glass, the nose is super concentrated hazelnut, almond, vanilla chantilly, toffee, toast
On the palate, mandarin pulp, opal and Granny Smith apple mix
Decent chalky
Can feel the dosage but balanced
Med- finish tho

And moving on to liberté which is much more airy and light
