95 Points

Monday, January 1, 2024 - I remember having this several years ago and at the time it was not really in a good mood: bracing and angular, shrill even. Although this still tastes like a young champagne (even at 22 years old) it is much more open and generous. Rose, mint, light frozen strawberry, a little lemon are the main flavor components. Got better and deeper ( more distinct flavors, more intense bouquet) with a little air. Don’t over- chill this: a light chill seems to bring out the best. I have the feeling this will be even better in a few years, but it is already a wow. Every so often I open a Cuvee Elisabeth Salmon to remind myself why this is my favorite rose champagne.
Score: 95+. Relative to expectations: +++
