April 20, 2024 - Magnum, three years after purchase. Super clean and citrussy. The ageing just takes the edge off, but retains a lovely vigour.

June 24, 2023 - Light lemon color with some greenness
Fun comparative with Grassl 1855 vs liberté glasses
In 1855 glass, the nose is super concentrated hazelnut, almond, vanilla chantilly, toffee, toast
On the palate, mandarin pulp, opal and Granny Smith apple mix
Decent chalky
Can feel the dosage but balanced
Med- finish tho
And moving on to liberté which is much more airy and light -

June 15, 2023 - I'm guessing a bit at the date. (I seem to do that a lot.) We had the Tutor and his awesome partner the Trainer over to celebrate Tutor getting his PhD. Lots of special things to celebrate, so we started with this. I've had this cuvee before, and it's reliably wonderful for the price. Hits your major champagne notes, toasty, crisp, smooth, lightly citrusy. Lately, I've been scoring some very nice deals on Champagne, but if you want a take-no-chances Champagne with a nice presentation, this is an excellent choice at a reasonable price.
