December 31, 2015 - Color medium straw, very good saturation, some fine bubbles. This had been cellared for three or so years from purchase, so it was expressive with more yeasty warm bread notes than expected, in addition to flowers, lemons and yellow delicious apple. Focused citrus flavors buoyed by minerals and saline with very good persistence. Outstanding pairing with NYE caviar on blinis with creme fraiche. Excellent value at 35
October 12, 2014 - Clean Slightly fruity. Slightly dry
Fine bubbles. Bland finish
June 28, 2014 - Very enjoyable, rather fruit forward champagne. This was described to us as ``very dry" but had, in our opinion, some residual sweetness. No complaints though, this was a wonderful aperitif and paired very well with dessert as well.
June 22, 2014 - Champagne Brunch (David's House - Washington, DC): Sabered and served from magnum. Intense wine with lots of citrus, minerals, a punch in the face acidity, but some nice creamy toasty notes. Quite complex.
May 22, 2014 - Downright tasty, and solid QPR for a Champagne. Took a little time to open up.
May 8, 2014 - Champagne: funghi porcini netti, poi gesso, tanto gesso in polvere. Leggero e molto compatto è uno splendido rasoio più acido che sapido. Guizza giù nel palato come un fuso con un finale limonoso e di mare. Grande persistenza, equilibrio e pulizia.
December 4, 2012 - Fatter, showing a little bit of oxidation. Not as good as the Gimmonet Cuis 1er cru
January 1, 2010 - M&D: Wow. Intense, complex & lively nose, grt fruit, high notes, int. lovely mth, long fin. W/ Christophe & Anne
