Saturday, January 14, 2012 - Baltimorean and one dcwino in NYC – Part 2 French at Corton: Ordered off the list. Oxidative nose, coffee, toffee and anise. Deeply toned but remains fresh. Small bubbles. Apparently 50% was made in solera style. Noticeable oxidative note like a sherry makes this a unique champagne. Some may disagree but this is not unlike a NV champagne from a big house that has been cellared for 20+ years. I, DP lover, find this interesting and enjoyable but not special. YMMV for sure.
