  August 4, 2022 - 🥂Henriot Rose Noir
  (Disgorged in the late 1970s, 100% Pinot Noir)
  Golden yellow colour with a slow stream of bubbles rising in the glass. Maturity on the nose showing honey and some dried fruit at first before opening up with tangerine and some lovely milk chocolate and creamy notes in a delicious way. Still very fresh on the palate with a smoothing acidity combined with butterscotch notes and some cream before the lengthy finish showing orange zesty bitterness in a very positive and pleasant way. This was a perfectly stored bottle and a wonderful example of a mature Blanc de Noirs, just excellent!
  (Still showing lots of freshness with 45+ years of post disgorgement)
