    April 14, 2022 - Bubbleclub--April 2022 (all wines served blind) (Opah in Aliso Viejo, CA): Served last night side by side (blind and bagged) with the 2015 Efflorescence. And, the 2014 was from the December 2018 disgorgement. This is bottle #11 of the 2014 since release, and it's an iconic wine for my Champagne experience because it was the wine that very early on led me to the appreciation and respect I have for Dominique Moreau's winemaking skill. Last night's bottle was again beautiful. Stony, with concentrated red fruit, with the pedigree of length and balance. And as I have remarked so many times now, don't drink these wines too cold, and instead let them warm up and go still. Then, the beauty is revealed. I tell you, the 2014 is aging wonderfully and continues to reflect and bring a joy that is remarkable for me.

    (Just going to post my own review and ran into this latest one from you)
