Sunday, January 1, 2017 - Dinner at Andrew's place: Served non-blind. Golden colour, a small bead. A bouquet of toffee apple, smoke, almond croissant, with oxidative notes and yeasty autolysis. Slightly lactic fragrances, a touch of Époisses. Drinking well as a mature Champagne. Creamy and lactic with grapefruit and other citrus, toffee and chalky minerals. Quite nuanced and layered. Lovely texture and racy acidity. Fully mature but does not look like it is in danger of falling over soon.
