Monday, September 28, 2009 - Masters of Wine Champagne Tasting (San Francisco, CA): Beautiful! Light yellow with small bubbles and a great bead. Fabulous nose: oaky and earthy with pear and apple showing a touch of oxidation. Nose continues onto the palate with pear, apple, spice, and toast. Medium-long finish. Judicious oakiness throughout. My favorite non-vintage of the tasting! If you’re into barrel-fermented bigger-bodied styles this is a must-try. Incredible value and performance for a non-vintage.
