Lively, fruit forward, bruised apples, prominent PN accents, lots of fruit, vinous feels almost a tad too sweet for my taste, but I've been perhaps over-rotating to more extra brut or even brut nature styles. Everyone else loved it... bottle went fast would have been great to let it open up but it was a crowd pleaser with lunch.

Notes immédiates d'amandes fraiches à l'ouverture. Un champagne nettement plus caressant que la précédente fiole bue l'an passé. Bel équilibre, aucune aspérité, bulle soyeuse.
Très bien pour le prix. On accorde un bonus pour le RQP.

Purchased 2012 - pale gold in colour. Little (but just enough to give it life) carbonation left - nose of cashew, lemon, mineral. Caressing on the palate rather than invigorating. Definitely mature and time to drink up.

Purchased in 2012. Pours dark lemon into the glass. Lots of brioche, citrus, toast and richness. Decadent and the perfect start to NYE celebrations.

Drank so good. I think I’m a lover of Pinot driven champagne.
