expressive and with ripe fruit, sweet nougat. Outdid most of the more well known champagnes in same price range.

great and more expressive this time, has a lot more potential though.

very crispy and lemony champagne with energy and vivacious mousse that could do well to rest for a year in the back of the closet. Good stuff!

2013 Pierre Péters Champagne Grand Cru l'Esprit
93 points
Very very good, no notes taken but it has balance and lots of good acidity, while still being quite expressive. More apples than cola. Still bundled together and waiting to fully extend its petals.

2013 Michel Turgy Champagne Grand Cru Vieilles Vignes Blanc de Blancs
no notes but a little bit of a disappointment for the price. Lacks somewhat acidity.

N.V. Vouette et Sorbée Champagne Fidèle
no notes but this was one of the best champagnes of the evening for sure.

2013 Bailly-Lapierre Crémant de Bourgogne Vive-la-Joie Millésime
no notes but this was really good - on par with some of the champagnes for 50 % higher price that we tried the same evening. Highly recommended.

stylish, more lemony and sea shell elegant than most of the champagnes tried side by side. Very dry and strict. Not as much complexity as the best champagnes, but way more freshness and balance than the more boring champagnes. Intellectually challenging and very much in the Zero Dosage style. Highly recommended!

Really good value and drinking real well. Has good ripe fruit but also freshness and elegance.

the best champagne of the evening in my opinion, in a close race with Vouette&Sorbee Fidele, Lacourte-Godbillon 2012 and Pierre Peters L'Esprit 2013, as well as the Damien Hugot Rose.
