  Last of the case. Was absolutely surprised. Drank the last bottle in 2011. This was the best it ever tasted! Had a nice golden hue, showed good citrus, light yeast. but had this great green apple flavor! Was incredible. The finish went on and on. Just kept on chewing 15 minutes after. Everyone wanted more but that was the last of the 1998 PJ Fleur. @perrier Jouet

  A little past its prime.

  Nice moderately yeasty, crisp citrus and tropical fruits on the finish.

  - Light gold color with small pearls and aromas of orange blossom. It's somewhat balanced and has flavours of apricot and grapefruit with a medium body. Polished texture with a medium finish - Decided to try one last bottle on the post Thanskgiving brunch and had a big surprise. Amazing that it held its flavor and freshness after all these years. Smooth like you'd hope for and still holding the fruit. Nice!

  Not sure I'd fully put this on the downside, but would say it's mature and unlikely to improve. Cellared bottle, showing some oxidation, fine bubbles, decent fruit, good nose, faded fairly quickly.
