No truly great wines tonight, but consistently strong performances throughout, plenty of interest, and some really delicious food. Big success!

1998 Pol Roger Champagne Vintage Brut 92 Points
France, Champagne
Magnum. Really enjoyable start to the evening: gentle, lifted, a nice tang to the finish. Scarcely any bubbles left but I didn't mind that. Maybe a tad too sweet, and not the most complex, but very happy to get multiple top-ups.

1996 R. & L. Legras Champagne Grand Cru Saint-Vincent 93 Points
France, Champagne, Champagne Grand Cru
Magnum. More stuffing and complexity than the Pol we had alongside it, although no more lovely. Lemon, ginger and herbs on the nose, and a buttery (although not too rich) experience on the palate. Deep, smoky and pulsating with energy. Excellent.
