Saturday, October 23, 2010 - Lovely wine. Profuse bead kept exploding from the base of the glass.
Palate was lovely; complex, yeasty and very approachable with very persistent, fine mousse and attractive acid (with nice soft edges and a great, clean finish).
Drank beautifully, at 10 yrs of age, without any hints of harshness. Super classy. Very, very enjoyable; the 4 of us all loved it - it "hit the spot" but the 2 males at the table thought that it didn’t have the intensity or “attack” of a Krug. However I do not want to imply that it was lacking - it wasn't. Clearly a premium wine and worth the money.
