April 1, 2023 - Masterclass with Melanie Tarlant, vertical tasting of all currently released La Vigne d’Antan vintages. Wine #4/5. Made from ungrafted Chardonnay vines, planted in 1962. Disgorged in July 2010. Medium golden colour. Aroma of honey, ripe and dry apples, white peach, yeast, acacia, lime. Palate of zero dosage, seems slightly short in energy comparing ti other vintages. Earthy and chalky mineral notes along zesty citrusy flavours, spicy mousse, concludes with pleasant bitterness.

February 9, 2017 - Excellent. Chalky, lemon, mineral finish, nicely energetic. Very nice showing in a good spot now. Lovely finish.

January 29, 2017 - Lighter, highly reflective gold. Iced cake on the nose with a bit of aquarium bowl as a secondary scent. Almost no bubbles visible in the glass, but quite effervescent in the mouth. Notes of lemon bubble gum with strong minerals.

October 23, 2016 - Champagne - 100 Vintage and NV Champagne; 12/15/2015-12/15/2020: During a matter of taste Master Class, Grower Champagne. Disgorged in 2010. Fine mineralic nose with a touch of nuts, flowers. Finishes clean and fresh like a Riesling GG. Elegant and long.

June 5, 2015 - 100% Chard from ungrafted vines. This is a serious, delicious drink, with plenty of baked apple on nose and linear on palate, tasty with laser focus acidity and showing some minerality. Perfect for seafood or heavy dishes, makes you go back for more. Tastes young for a 2000.
