JD Friday Wine Group - GA Host (Dinner) (City Club FW - Oak Bar): Tasted blind - tiny bubbles in the flute, beautiful golden color, broad and deep flavor, big fruity nose - tastes of apple, bread, citrus, a little salty. Overall delicious. This is the style I like, as opposed to extra brut or no dosage. I guessed a 2006 big house top cuvee.

This wine is perfectly in my wheelhouse. Full throttle flavors and texture, yet elegant and balanced. The aged and fresh components are in perfect harmony. Great earthy complexity on nose and palate, with toasty apple and other white orchard fruit, subtle nuttiness. Spicy pickled ginger-like note adds to its energy. I really love this cuvée in 2000.

Really great bottle of Champagne. Nicely mature with nutty flavors, apple, some apricot, good minerality and strong tart acidity. As time went on, more sweetness emerged, just a really great bottle

Champagne In My Backyard: Served blind. There was some impressive concentration here for a wine that is approaching 25 years old. Lemon curd, stone fruit/tangy peach, with yellow apple and some nuttiness I bet from the age. Enjoyed this, one of my top 3 wines of the day.

Hawker night at Caroline's: Golden in colour, rich and nutty champagne in the old-school style. Felt like it was losing acidity so better to drink up.
