At Pierre Gagnaire with SL and FF. Classic blanc de blanc notes. Toasted brioche, fine bubbles, etc. Showing just a touch of age (mainly in the toasted noted)

Light gold in color. Nose of preserved lemons, candied citrus, and biscuits. Mousse is fine, acidity is high, just a touch of sweetness that is well balanced. Lemony and sweet citrus flavors, along with pie crust, yeasty autolysis, and a deeper toffee note. Finish is medium in length. A good medium point in its evolution to my palate. A very nice Champagne that I'd happily drink though it doesn't entirely blow my socks off.
Kind of fell apart on day two, so I'd say drink sooner rather than later...within a couple years.

Delicious and fantastic QPR. In a great place right now with plenty of fruit and acid but age starting to show

Enjoyed this bottle more than one several years ago. Seems to have picked up richness and layers while still staying fresh and chalky. At peak.

not blind, at the winery
The best from the trio 14, 07 and 93. Really fresh without green notes. 92-93
