September 29, 2023 - 2008 Champagne - 25 top names tasted blind: Discrete nose, after swirling some apples, citrus, oak spice. The lightest wine on the flight. Good but not special.

March 11, 2023 - Lovely mid gold. Nose of sweet lemon curd and hint of wet limestome. Touch of apple.
Palate full and deliciously rounded. Lemon flavor that extends to the finish which is crisp, dry and delightfully mineral. Depth of flavour lingers in the mouth.
Still young and youthful. 92+1 person found this helpful Comment -

March 26, 2022 - Saturday hangout at Domaine (Chicago, IL): From magnum. Disgorged April 8, 2015, 3 g/L dosage. I really wish this had a bit more dosage. It's really taut and high acid, and it's not my style of champagne. This veers a bit too far to the sour territory. Others liked this far more than I did, praising the freshness and the electricity, but for me, it really just boiled down to there being too much acid.

August 5, 2021 - Fresh melon, lemon (not just an anagram!), honey, and mineral-inflected aromas. A beautiful medium lemon color with lively bubbles, this drank superbly as a medium bodied Champagne with moderate richness and on likely the start of its plateau of drinking. Beautiful today.
