Community Tasting Note

NYC_Maenad Likes this wine:

Sunday, May 14, 2017 - 2007 base, 2008 bottling, Jan 2015 disgorgement. This has been resting in the cellar for more than a year now and has benefited from the time. Lovely golden straw color, and fine but not aggressive bubbles. The nose is broad and beguiling, with plenty of nuttiness and brioche. In the mouth, it displays a rich, deep mouthfeel without being heavy, and comes off as nicely mature. Not a hint of sherry or apple cider that would lead me to think it's developing too fast. With some air, this actually tightened up in a good way, getting more refined and elegant. A little more developed, as expected, than last tasting, I now find this a rich and extremely delicious, easy-drinking champagne that packs a lot of punch for its price point. Happy to have bought in quantity and looking forward to opening this with regularity. Worth noting the excellent back label that gives bottling details. Bravo.
