CdT Dinner (RCC): Nice clean champagne, served from white wine glasses, allowed for the typical brioche, nuttiness to show through. Clean acidity and brightness balanced out well

Not sure of disgorgement but probably 6-10 years from release I’m assuming, this was golden in the glass exhibiting age in the bottle, bubbles were faint at best and the nose reveals lots of age, baked apple, caramel and honeyed fruit that feels past peak; the palate is not terrible but the wine is flat and lost all vibrancy to it; cooked low and slow for too long and this met its final demise in the bonfire where the smoky steam gave more olfactory interest than anything from the glass.

Light golden color. Apple and citrus nose. Green apple, pear and citrus notes and a yeasty toast undercurrent that is not over the top. Not very complex, but classic Champagne in every way. This one does not make you work through its secrets. It’s just simple enjoyment and celebration.

(NV Pommery Champagne Brut Royal) Fresh, nutty, brioche nose; tasty, refreshing, tart sweet grapefruit with strong minerality; long finish (This went well with our amuse bouche, tuna tartare with grilled plum compote.)
