served blindly from Bertrand Lilbert and nailed it. Delicious, balanced, nice beginning aging signs but still lemon dominated, some almonds and biscuit notes. At least 15 more years. 96

Decent, tight champagne, but lacks character.

A bit too dark for a 2002, but it was otherwise very fine. A rich champagne that should be drunk sooner rather than later.

Citrus / lemon with a hint of nuts.
Beautifully pale, like how a non-premoxed white burg of the same vintage should look like. A very refined champagne
