Saturday, March 21, 2015 - Orange tinge, light spritz. Nose is bready and apple, the palate follows through with crisp crab apple flavours and a pastry finish. Too much acidty for my liking...An issue I have with a lot of champagne and given the price I don't know why I persevere!

Another suggestion might be to try out Charles Heidsieck instead which makes a much more rich, mature and toasty style than Piper Heidsiecks elegant(thin) and fresh(acidic) style. Cheers!
