    September 23, 2023 - 18 base, 23 disgorgement. Surprisingly full, rounded and giving. Not quite the added complexity or depth of the 08 base, but surprisingly delicious now and like an event 17 base not crying for extra cellar time. ***1/2

    September 21, 2023 - Light to medium yellow gold
    On the nose, yellow nectarine, plum, yeast, candied pecan
    Palate matches the nose, also some toffee
    Fresh, some pickled mustard, lovely bitterness at the back too

    Rarely change my preference, found myself liking Charles heidsieck more now hehe, lovely paring with spicy hunan pickled greens (gongcai), frogs with pickled pepper

    Laid in chalk cellars in 2018
    Disgorged in 2022

    September 13, 2023 - On a Singapore Airlines BC flight from New York to Frankfurt. Complex apple notes, citrus, mixed berries, nuts, almond, bread crust, brioche, and smoke, with good acidity and very good length. Good autolysis character. Smooth, creamy mousse even under cabin pressure. Very harmonious after a few minutes in the glass. The Charles Heidsieck Réserve NV bottling is very consistent in its richer, autolytic, slightly oxidative style. A very good NV champagne.

    September 6, 2023 - Questo è il mio champagne.
    Fresco, beverino con sentori di noce e nocciola.
    Non super complesso ad un costo più che decente per la qualità espressa.
    Da riprendere assolutamente.
