March 31, 2024 - Colour: Straw yellow
Very fine bubbles … they really keep (1h40 lm after opening bottle they are still very intens me and pleasantly present when tasting)
A wonderful nose (notes confits in French)
A full bodied champagne with a wonderful length.

December 31, 2023 - Tasted blind. Straw color. Apples, pears, lime and brioche on the nose. Mostly cantaloupe and pear with bready notes on the end of the palate. Acidity is medium-plus. Overall, tasting blind, it tasted like a vintage champagne. Very good.

October 16, 2023 - At La Table de Pavie, St. Emilion. By the glass. Though a bit bready on entry, this food-friendly crowd pleaser is rescued by a nicely placed bead of acidity that saves it from becoming too doughy. White melon rind, lemon, fresh sourdough, and white rock notes put this square in the middle of a sea of Champagne that are “more than fine.” You know what to expect here when swimming in this pond.
Having the 2012 Egly after this was just…… unfair.1 person found this helpful Comment
