  April 22, 2023 - Champagnes and dinner with Alan and friends: Similar impressions to two years ago. Rich and decadent style which has mellowed with time in the bottle. Still very fresh with vibrant red apple fruit. These do much better with age than the younger iterations that I’ve tried.

  October 13, 2021 - Another good bottle, but not the best I've had. This time more of a grower feel. A bit simple.

  April 18, 2021 - Quick drinks while collecting wine: This was big and bold, strong notes of yeast and brioche, andthe oak gave it a massive structure. Well-balanced with plenty of acidity and vibrant fruit still, brilliant champagne.

  June 16, 2020 - Sigh. Seemed quite advanced showing a dark color and a very oxidative nose. In no way unpleasant but not on par with previous bottle. Also lacking some oomph.
