Pear, light lemon, good acidity, tiny bubbles, brioche bread and yeasty notes. Lingering finish. This NV bottling was from a 93 pt rating by Wine Spectator

Guess I have to learn the hard way that eBay is not a good place to buy sparkling whine. This one was totally gone. The cork slipped out as if it was lubricated, then didn't inflate. Wine had a strong cork taint and only half the carbon dioxide left. No chance of finding out what good old Piper Heidsieck tastes like.

Still tasted very good even though past it's prime drinking years. Drank with pineapple juice for a "twist" on the classic mimosa. Slightly flat but expected to be due to its age.

We clearly waited too long (October 2013) to drink this beautiful wine, it was in our off-site storage and we lost track. Way past its prime.
