Not the best bottle condition
February 1, 2024 - Another wonderful wine brought to dinner by a generous member of CDV713.
I love it when the night starts and ends with Champagne.

May 11, 2023 - PnP. Open right out of the gate with a lovely creamy texture and soft mousse. Just like last month, classic Cristal lemon with great acid to balance. Drinking absolutely beautifully.
April 21, 2023 - April 21: The consensus favorite vs the 00 Krug, and I can't disagree. Energetic, almost flamboyant.
April 21, 2023 - Atlanta Musigny & Chevy Dinner: So young and fresh, it was hard to believe it was 2000. But it's wide open for business and classic lemon with a solid core of acid. This is the one to drink for the next few years while you're waiting for your 2002, 2008, etc.
April 8, 2023 - A bit over the top. Drink up!

we had it after the Krug 2000. This time I would go with the Cristal. Fresher, more energetic and precise. No roasted aromas, not easy to detect. I guessed Cristal 1996. Great acidity structure. Still alive at least for 5-8 years. 94-95
