  Clos De Goisses is their flagship cuvée.
  
  Quite golden in color. Nose of bruised pear, golden apple, pineapple, blood orange, spice, cream, bread dough, caramel, yellow lilies.
  
  The palate is beautiful and layered. Nice body. Has the right amount of neutral wood for me to give it great complexity. Pear, red apple, orange citrus blend, pineapple, blackberries, lime-lemon-grapefruit, limestone & volcanic minerals, razor sharp chalkiness, white spice-ginger & a hot spice, sea fossils, saline, bread dough & baguette crust, caramel notes, cream, white florals, yellow lilies, excellent acidity and a beautifully; balanced, structured, nicely knitted, wire to wire long nicely not overly polished two-minute finish. This will keep getting better and better. Has decades of life.

  Dinner at Hermosa (Chicago, IL): Very nice, especially for Goisses, in that this is very clean and doesn't have much funk. Quite sweet and clearly very ripe -- almost comes across a little sugary maybe? Sweet stone fruit; more so than apples and pears. Not a vigorous fizz here. Clos des Goisses has always been a bit of an idiosyncratic champagne, and this vintage is no exception, even though it does drink like how I would expect it to drink in 2009.

  Salon Focofi Paris walkabout and dinner, so no detailed tasting notes. From Jero. Great showing here as well, ripe, rich, yet fresh, long finish.

  Youthful but already delicious, although a couple of hours of air were required to really get going. It's still early, but I really like this vintage for CdG. Tried a few permutations and it showed best at cellar temperature and in a Sensory glass. Next bottle in ~3 years.
