Two couples, seven bottles of bubbly, six ounces of caviar, and half a pound of smoked salmon
Big and bodacious. Lots of brioche and a lengthy finish. Although I prefer it in magnum, the wine still did not disappoint.

This was a recently disgorged NV. Great flavors but definitely delicate. Masculine styled but ethereal in mouthfeel.
One of the best rose champagnes I've ever had. Beautifully round with lots of fruit. Matched the salmon in color.
This wine is very good, but wasn't comparable when placed next to the Belles Voyes. Yes it's less expensive, but the Henriot NV bests it handily.
