Had this from a magnum for NYE. Never tried this producer, nor the 2001 Champagne vintage before.
A proper pop and plenty of bubbles left even after pouring. The color is yellow gold. Initially light flavors, but really opened up after warming up a bit in 30+ min. Brioche, with some acidity and citrus notes. It feels it could still carry for another 5-10 years, but really yummy now already! I wish I had some more in the cellar.
