Community Tasting Note

Friday, October 18, 2013 - Friday Night in Toronto (10tation Catering): Light gold in colour. Surprisingly appearing to be the least advanced Champagne served tonight. Initially a bit reticent, but as it warmed, the nose gave way to lemon zest, wet stones, spice, grated ginger, yeast, baked apple, a touch of orchard fruit, and after about 30 minutes, notes of freshly ground espresso emerged. On the palate, good concentration, but a touch leaner than the other two Champagnes served tonight. Finish is long and crisp, showing racy acidity, closing out with citrus, apple, mineral and a tinge of bitter walnut skin on the finish. This bottle still seemed to be on the upswing.
