A small dinner with new and old friends. Starting with oysters and shrimps in sallad juice, followed by steamed fillet of plaice in a white wine sause. Then over to duck breast with mushroom risotto, and then some cheese.

Good mature champagne with lots of nuts, brioche, some caramel and a hint of cream, but still keeping it fresh with good acidity and a nice mousse. Could perhaps wish for a little more energy to the fruit, but overall very nice.

This wine is really something special. Less than 500 bottles made. we get a nose of wild flowers - dandelion, lily of the valley, white roses - and fruit dominated by green apples and pear. Also some lamon and orange peel. On the palate rich, almost unctous but with a piercing acidity and minerals by the cartload. Extremly long finish dominated by lemon and chalk.
This wine displays a mixure of opulence and freshness I'm not sure I've encountered before. I'm not sure what to make of it, but it's damn good.
