Community Tasting Note

  • evjoh Likes this wine:

    February 16, 2022 - This needs an hour or two to breathe and express itself. Right after popping the cork, there's a lot of grannysmith apple, lemon, and just a touch of brioche. After two hours though, it becomes apparent how much time this spent on the lees. The typica apple and cranberry are backed up by yogurt and cream cheese notes. The super fine mousse also plays off of the ample acidity really well.

    This is a pretty amazing Champagne even for $100. Personally, I'd much rather buy two bottles of this now than one bottle of Krug GC. I can only imagine how complex this will be in five or ten years, but I don't blame anyone for drinking it now.

    I import it for sale in Denmark but the price we sell it at is just under $60...
