(Disgorged in 2001, 100% Chardonnay from Avize, Chouilly, Cramant, Le Mesnil sur Oger and Oger, dosage 7 gr/l) Lovely golden yellow colour with a fine stream of bubbles in the glass. Maturing nose showing butterscotch, vanilla, citrus flower and a touch of saffron and honey in a delicious way. Palate still showing lots of acidity with red apples, some herbs and with a nice buttery note and a lime zest bitterness on the lengthy finish. This is just delicious right now! (Best 2010-2030)

A beauty. Underrated vintage. Dense and complex, spicy ginger, apple, citrus. Fine but generous bead. Minimal oxidative notes, plenty of life left in this one.

Pale gold color. Notes of roasted nuts, brioche, apple and baked pear. This has a very fine bead and nice texture. A bit creamy, with cashew butter, baked apple and bread tones on the palate. Gorgeous finish, with a subtle floral quality.

Lager colored. Still some fine bubbles. Brioche, cream, toasted apples and some fresh citrus. Still giving pleasure.

Still very nice. Somewhat dark in color. Caramel notes on the back palate.
