  March 31, 2024 - Even despite not holding on to all of its pressure, this was really enjoyable. A strong treacle and honey palate with some peach fruit leather. Acidity was nice and the residual sugar (my guess was 6g/l) helped the wine age perfectly. A perfect condition bottle would be excellent.

  November 1, 2023 - Bill's wine. Clear bright gold. Much fresher and crisper than the Rare served before it with notes of dried apple, toffee and spice.

  July 24, 2021 - Clear bright gold. Dried fruit, lactose, caramel and spice. Dry caramel and dairy flavours and a soft dry finish.
  
  Hanging on.

  September 6, 2008 - OC Wine Dinner (Nesai - Newport Beach, CA): I love almost any kind of Champagne, but there wasn't much to get excited about here and a real disappointment from a vintage perspective. There was a very distinct sparkling cider note to the wine, which fortunately dissipated and evolved into green apples. Very low acidity heightens the perception of red apple sweetness and a slight oxidative note persists through the finish. Decent as a starter wine, but in general lacks depth and interest. 85-86 points.
