Community Tasting Note

  October 22, 2023 - Not pristine but the fill was reasonable (about 3/4 inch from the bottom of the foil). It needed 15 minutes of air to warm up and for the buttery elements to emerge. Held up well over the entire dinner. Not many bubbles left but it hit all the right buttons for a champagne of this age. I haven't had the 61 yet but IMHO this was on par with 64 and probably better than 66 and 69 which I all adore. Of course, condition is everything for these old bottles but DPs rarely disappoint in the 60s. Leaving a few points off as surely a pristine bottle would surpass this one.
