August 5, 2018 - I haven't had this wine in the better part of a decade, but back then I used to think it one of the best Champagnes I'd ever had. This bottle didn't live up to that memory. A touch of old Champagne funk on the nose. There's still a great citric streak, and a ton of weight and a savory, darker pinot-inflected character. It's almost more liqueur at this stage, but overall it's faded and just doesn't have quite enough lift or continuity to it. Too bad.
