Community Tasting Note

Tuesday, December 25, 2012 - This bottle vas disgorged 2/7/2012 and opened on 12/25/2012.
Golden yellow colour with an amazing amount of fine little bubbles.
On the nose there's apricot mixed with dried fruits and mature sweet fruits and a distinct tone of oak. Showing some resemblance with Madeira.
The palate is very intensive and ample with a round taste of oak, dried fruits and a crunchiness from the low dosage. The length in the aftertaste is very good and with a nice citrus tone.

It's the first time trying this Champagne and it really offers a different experience. All by itself it's both interesting, provocative and peculiar. But together with matching food it rises to a much higher level! We had it with risotto made of morels and it was a perfect match.

Next time we will have it with fillet of beef, morel sause and wild rice.
