Vinumming & Ahhing Likes this wine:
August 31, 2023 - Champagne and Pinot Noir WIMPS #168 31st August 2023 (La Trompette, Chiswick): First champagne served and from the off this is very, very good. There is a crumbled lemon muffin character to the nose with the faintest hint of rhubarb. Palate is fresh and really long. With air a touch of lime oil emerges. Cracking

June 30, 2023 - Pale lemon. Toasty citric lemony and seems quite sweet, perhaps the dosage is quite high. Certainly an aperitif and not really my cup of tea.
