July 25, 2015 - From magnum. Rich and secondary, but with plenty of cut and understated bubbles. Opened up pretty quickly and was absolutely delicious all night, and the next morning. Fantastic.

July 21, 2011 - Bobby's Birthday Bash (28-50): Oenotheque release. Mid gold, lovely oxidative, slightly caramel, honey and yeasty nose. Quite rich on the attack, reasonably mineral mid-palate and a bit of bite on the finish before falling off to a gentle end blacks complexity and persistence for top flight butthis is showing very well. ***1/2
