Community Tasting Note

Sunday, December 14, 2008 - Oh my god how good this is - boys and girls, this indeed is the real deal, the best champagne we've ever had. The bottle was enjoyed this am as part of a birthday breakfast for a good friend while up in Bryson City NC for a Christmas weekend get-away with our dinner club. Pale straw colored, tiny lively bubbles, unbelievable aeromatics - nose initially very effervescent with tones of mature pear and vanilla coming through after initial effervescence blew off. Crisp, minerally and yet soft and very well balanced. Flavors included a very pleasant underlying nuttiness and almost a mocha structure with primary flavors of green apple, peach and vanilla. First DP we've had, I now understand the fuss and the reputation. Highly recommend this, however way too expensive to be any kind of a good QPR - in life, however, some things are simply worth the money.
