Saturday, February 8, 2014 - Memorable Grand Champagne Tasting (St. Paul, MN): Light gold color. Drank 1 glass over 45 minutes. Beautifully toasted on the nose, nice streak of minerals, pastry cream, yeast, heady mousse, pear, bread. The palate is younger, yeasty, brioche, intense and powerful, but remains elegant and finessed, pear, apple, white peach, a touch chalky on the finish. Lovely. This was drinking a bit younger than the '04 Vilmart.
