NV Georges Laval Champagne Premier Cru Brut Nature CumièresChampagne Blend more |
8/13/2010 - ericis Likes this wine: NRTaken at first by exotic spice flavors and wasn't sure I liked it. When I returned to bottle some hours later I was completely captivated by an incredible mouthfeel of interlaced viscosity and delicate froth that dissolved endlessly. There was an interplay between bright lemon and a salinity I have never tasted in champagne before. The finish was extremely long lived. Wow. |

1996 Henriot Champagne Brut MillésiméChampagne Blend more |
7/23/2010 - ericis Likes this wine: 92 pointsopens with nose of burnt toffee and fig. Palate is vibrant with still intense acidity that cuts your tongue and is nowhere near resolved. Citrus and green apple notes predominate the finish. Would like to revisit in 3-5 years. |

6/30/2010 - ericis Likes this wine: 91 pointsFruit less forward than prior occasions so either peaking or settling down. Vibrant acidity still present so will likely try next bottle in another couple of years. Still very enjoyable drinker. From 2000 crop. Am very interested in trying the 2002 which is as still yet unreleased. |
