March 18, 2024 - Golden hue. Round and creamy, toasted bread and nuts. Nice full malolactic fermentation here. This is hedonistic and pampering for all the guests. 94 points.

December 10, 2023 - A bit darker with the PN mix (and after the BdB flight), nice, structured, some good yeast character, but a bit closed. However, had 1/3 left over 2 days later and was stunningly good. Aromatic nose, good orchard fruit and autolysis that went amazingly well with a fois pate and cheese. Just goes to show that champagne needs to breathe as well. Next time try decanting. Newport Seafood Champagne Lunner.

January 13, 2023 - Uttterly wonderful, as it always has been. It has that slightly acrid grip which sets off the sumptuous chardonnay fruit. Gorgeous.
