July 4, 2020 - Ripe and big fruit aromas and flavors with plenty of berry and orchard fruit character. Good+ weight, and also good finesse. Still nicely fresh as well.

May 16, 2017 - Both Pinot Noir and Chardonnay strut their stuff nicely here. Ripe berries and apple with very good concentration. Good finesse and textures. Best now through the next few years.

May 10, 2017 - Drank at WWS tasting. Earthy pinot nose, along with some toasty notes. Medium weight, fairly crisp acidity. Bread, yeast, some minerality. Very long, but slightly bitter finish.

September 24, 2016 - Best bottle of the lot. Mature, creamy, good mousse, medium body and medium finish. Very nice for the money.

February 26, 2016 - Ripe and powerful apple with subtle berry notes, this shows both its Chardonnay and Pinot Noir character nicely. Fresh and energetic, I enjoyed this a lot tonight, but expect it to be better several years from now.

2011 Champagne Catalog, 6/1/2011 (link)(Gaston Chiquet Brut Millésime) ($65.00) Disgorged 7/09. Ah, here it is at last. The fragrance is pure Pinot Noir; blueberry and grape-hyacinth; a chewy, vinous being, huckleberry; density and solidity, a highly specific, wine-like Champagne, as far from the commercial as you can imagine.
