April 21, 2024 - Monthly Tasting Group: California: Anything but Napa (BLVD Kitchen & Bar, Wayzata, MN): Ultra-pale greenish gold color. Small glass. Tart, bright, lemon, geat acid, limestone, chiseled and crisp. Drank like an Extra Brut. Very nice.

April 14, 2024 - Basewine from 2018. Dégorgé in May 2022..
On the nose expressive. Honeyapples, cream and brioche.
On the palate almonds, tart apples, a hint of grapefruit. Vigorous mousse. Quite elegant. -
Rezy13 Likes this wine:
April 6, 2024 - From 2017 base this shows great richness and depth, brioche, toast and somewhat nutty, honeyed apple, still an elegance to it but the acidic drive on the finish is what separates this style in my book- Krug, Egly and this.

March 30, 2024 - Green apple, quince and pastry. Almost a touch of sweetness. Rich and heavy, this feels higher dosage. A little plain, but there is nothing out of place here.

Tasting Some Bubbles with Brian Solis, Episode #838, 3/26/2010 (link) (89-91) points(Philipponnat Royale Reserve Brut) #2; COLOR-golden; NOSE-tight; little hint of smokiness, but not much more; PALATE-this is intriguing; comes across as complex and classy; a little young right now; I get clove; some floral and mineral aspects; feel like I ate a crushed rock and oyster sea shell salad; also some banana skin on the back-end; seems very complex, but feels like it hasn't fully opened yet; this is a little awkward right now, but I believe has some long term potential; WS-91; GV-89/91
