95 Points

Wednesday, June 12, 2013 - Epic Champagne Tasting (Fringale, San Francisco): Light gold color; nose has lovely balance and not very oxidative with slight yeast and pear fruit; fabulous acidity on the palate that adds great freshness and vibrancy to the wine, perfect bubbles, lovely tart green apple fruit, very young; finish is long and fresh. The most impressive characteristic of this wine is definitely the balance and the long finish. This seems very young with a lot of potential for improvement, and it seems like a good buy if you can find a decent price. (I would buy this over the 96 Krug for the same price, despite the fact that the Krug is arguably drinking slightly better today.) 95++ (95-98 with time)
