75% 2007 with rest reserve wines. Bottled 04/2008 Disgorged 01/27 2015. 6 G Dosage. Beautiful golden sheen and a rich and generous mousse. Yellow apples and some orchard fruit with brioche aromas. Rich mouth feel and rather savory for a Mesnil SO GC. Good acidity and mineral on finish. It went well with appetizer courses. Would also work well as an aperitif. Overall I would have preferred a little less dosage for more focus, but that's a minor issue. At a good place overall.
