April 17, 2024 - Retail $165. Ridiculously Heavy Bottle (920g; 2lbs 0.4oz). 66% Chardonnay, 34% Pinot Noir. I drink a ton of champagne. A. Ton. But. I do not drink much *prestige* champagne since, well, it's really expensive. Case in point. I have a bit of a history (but far from extensive) with Pommery's top wine, more than any other? But this is my first 2002. Yeah, a lot to unpack there. What needs no unpacking? This is spectacular. Whoa. Yellow, and well on the way to golden in the glass, with a nutty mélange of citrus rind and yeasty goodness. Whoa. A surprisingly vibrant sparkle on the palate with an equally surprising tartness that smacks the lips in joyful engagement. A word salad meaning this is damned good from the jump. Smoky, yeasty, tart, engaging, holy cow and my goodness, this is tasty. And likely still young. Another ten years, easy. Outstanding. 96 Points.

October 2, 2023 - Just delicious! Hitting that wonderful point when this tête de cuvée brings to the fore in a beautiful light amber color a palate with richly blended toasty/nutty/lemon hints / and a creamy undertone. Only missing a tad more acid- backed chiseled backbone. Delightful now and a real food wine.93-94

August 16, 2023 - Dinner at Chengdu Impression (Chicago, IL): Very intense notes of toasted bread and biscuity quality. Shows the ripeness of the vintage and has pretty good balance overall.
