June 2, 2022 - {Bought by EB on release, drunk with EB, AW, TS} "Just the right side of oxidation" with insane complexity and brioche elements; austere style. [brief note]

November 27, 2021 - quite vinous, still life, but faded fast. Needed 10 minutes for what we thought was bret to blow off, and then it became very interesting with nutts, and dried fruit, but the bubbles were fading fast. Beautiful amber/brown in glass. I like it, but this is not for everyone

November 21, 2021 - vinous. Faded quickly. I actually liked this 31 year old champagne, but I think most would not. Very nutty, leather, fine bubbles, but still so much to enjoy(IMHO) in this elder statesman.

September 1, 2021 - compare to the 95 La Grande Année, this bottle has less bubble but more flavor intensity.
