May 13, 2024 - Well made in British style of firmness with rich Pinot character. Deep dense and bristled. Not quite my style.
May 3, 2024 - Wow, this wine really blew me away. Haven't had the '08 Churchill in about five years but this was really showing magnificently today.
April 24, 2024 - This will be a sublime wine with the proper cellar time. Very tight right now, but lots of sex appeal. This will easily be a 30 year wine.
February 13, 2024 - Has all the ingredients, but not ready by a decade.
February 11, 2024 - My first bottle. This meets and exceeds its strong reputation. I loved it.

January 12, 2024 - Always complex, rich and toasty w notes of wood, citrus and spices. My sense is 10+ years would work magic on this wine so I’ll try to cellar the rest for a time.
December 14, 2023 - Yeah this crushed it. Spectacular in every sense.
Needed about 30 minutes to open. First glass was a bit tight and non de-script. But fear not, this wine blossomed and stretched its outstretched arms into a massive bear hug and loving embrace. Such glorious abundance.
What a treat. Can you tell I enjoyed it? As did the wife who has a very discerning palette especially when it comes to bubbles. In a great drinking window and may get smidge better over time but maybe not.
Balance has everything I look for with a great acid backbone to support long term aging and give it great lift. Bravo.
November 27, 2023 - Enjoyed at Diegos belated birthday.
What an absolute killer of a champagne. Incredible nose of brioche, white flowers, green apples, chalk and stone fruit. True purity.
The mousse is really something special. Super mouthfeel. On the palate the wine shows impeccable balance.
I suggest to open this 1-2 hours prior to serving as it got a lot better in the glass after 30 minutes or so.
October 29, 2023 - Lovely champagne, enjoyed with the Barkers at Bosa in Bend. Totally a party in my mouth. Everything going on with this wine - precise, green apples, brioche. Just lovely. Agree with Collector1855 who said this champagne is perfect for the novice and advanced taster.
