Nice soft mousse, notes of dark bread and some toast. There slight hints of spice and liquirice. Color light yellow. Wonderful glass.

Keith's Italian Wine Dinner (Osteria Langhe - Chicago IL): Completely and fully mature with baked apple notes throughout, good richness, good depth.

Took Billecart-Salmon's 24-year-old Tete de Cuvee to my group's last wine dinner of 2023. IMO, it still will show spectacularly for another 3-4 years, but why wait? Cepage is 60% pinot noir, 40% chardonnay. It tasted fresher, again IMO, than the first champagne poured, a very delicious 2002 Carbon BdB. The Billecart offered floral and nutty aromas, and still had a steady stream of tiny bubbles. Very elegant and balanced. Bought in 2016 and kept in the same very cool spot in my cellar for the last 7 years. One of the best champagnes I ever drank.

Det ble et kort notat da andre oppgaver stod i fokus en flott kveld med hyggelig feiring:
To flasker av Billecart-Salmon Nicolas Francois 1999 ble servert og begge var perfekt modne med toner av appelsin, modne epler, kjeks og mandelkake, flott syre og god lengde. Delikat og elegant, dyp og flott balansert med fine bobler! Dette synger 🎶

Developed aromas with citrus, minerals, autolysis and some toast. Light weighted, tart and elegant, still with good concentration. Was maybe even better 7 years ago.
