October 3, 2023 - Disgorged August 2008. Well this is certainly mature. Moderate brassy-yellow color, still some fine bubbles. It smells like lemon furniture polish and gentle caramel notes with a fine spine of lemony acids - even after 15 years in bottle. Really lovely and full of life and drank well for the hour we had it open.

September 24, 2014 - This small Cotes des Blancs producer is located in the town of Oger. Only 20 cases of this were imported. The Chardonnay for this wine is sourced from 4 Grand Cru plots (Zailleux, Beaudure, Barbettes and Chenêts).

August 30, 2014 - Helder lichtgeel. Fijne mousse, die in het glas snel minder intens wordt. In de geur broodgist, bloemen en mineralen. Zuiver en vol van smaak met citrusfruit, groene appel, hazelnoot en mineralen. Lang aanhoudend.

September 21, 2013 - Wat jammer dat ik niet proef wat hieronder allemaal beschreven staat.Het lijkt mij heerlijk om dat allemaal in een wijn te proeven.
Ik proef en ruik alleen maar een heleboel gist en citrus en een zuurgraad waar je spontaan tanderosie van krijgt, maar dat zal wel aan mij liggen. Teleurstellend. Ik snap niet wat mensen hier lekker aan vinden. -

December 31, 2012 - Expressive aromas of lemon, orange peel, indian spices and brioche. Full bodied with zesty lemon balanced out with some brioche and almond wrapped in a fine mousse. The long finish brings in some, almost bourgeois, minerality.
This Champagne is even better with food. It was an excellent pairing with some Coquille St. Jacque.
