Sunday, May 29, 2022 - Champagne Blind Tasting 5/29/22 (Jackie's House): Tasted blind along with seven other Champagnes between 10 people. Prices ranging from $15-180.
Medium gold. Autolysis and oxidative notes of yeast, bread dough, pastry, almond, green fruit notes, Asian pear, lemon peel. Bright and acidic, but starting to develop tertiary notes. Med+ acid, med+ body, long finish, delicate mousse. Quite enjoyable and definitely the most developed Champagne of the night. Compared to the 2010 that I have had recently, the 2007 still showing the older oxidative styling of JV that was not seen in the 2010. 92 pts
