Rich and voluptuous with a fine but full bead. Buttered brioche and movie theatre popcorn on the palate but with a fine laser beam of acidity. Drinking great. One of my all time favorite champagnes. I wouldn't wait to drink more. In fact I can't wait to drink more!

Wow! A beautiful age, with persistent but gentle bubbles. This is super concentrated, still fresh with some lemon, but lots of complexity, honey, almonds, almonds, toasty brioche. Very long and very delicious. Perfect now!!

I’m surprised to see the recent auction price of this wine so high, as these were probably around $100 on release, now 4x? Even so, this was on fire tonight and a smashing example of Comtes as it reaches its apex. Toasted almond, lemon curd, with mushroom developing in the background, this was very impressive and ready to drink. It made me want to check in on 06… this was served alongside a 2002 Bollinger LGA and Tattinger was the better wine

This is great... it seems fully mature but maybe still with some surprises still to be revealed?
Nose of rich lemon tart and antique shop. On the palate slightly heavier than when last tried in 2020, but the wine still combining richness and lightness in a subtle and satisfying way.
Its pleasing viscosity perfectly balanced by the firm, acidic backbone. Like a pair of voluptuous breasts held in place by a strict French corset...
Get some...

Nose of candied orange, almonds and roasted lemon. A very fine mousse. Very elegant and almost low key, but deep and complex. Very long with some chalk on the finish. Great stuff. Still some upside.
