Bien! C'est spécial les Laval. Y'a toujours ce profil riche et légèrement oxydatif. Éloignez la flûte ou coupette. Une fois qu'il a respiré c'est riche, profond et de belle longueur. J'aime. Mauvais RQP en IP chez Vanya toutefois.

Just like the last bottle I had. Still very young and it takes a bit of time to shift gears, but with a little air this is outstanding with an array of fresh, precise fruit flavours, chalky minerality, and more savoury yeasty and biscuit notes on a very light yet intense body.

Champagne Georges Laval dinner (chez Brooklynguy): Fresh smelling and very pure tasting, with flavors of golden fruit and raw nuts, and with a vibrant saline mineral underpinning. But with 15 minutes open the flavors veer towards apples and the style is distracting - oxidative.

Awesome - incredibly young, but totally seamless and showing a lot of complexity already with youthful fruit, dough, yeast, chalky minerality, and bright floral notes all coming together on a very elegant frame with a focus and sense of lightness that make it so easy to drink. Thanks Mike.

A bit too aged, some red apple notes, still good acidity structure. Could be fresher and less herbal. 91

Oxydée. Déception.

From Magnum
A straightforward champagne with a strong backbone, crispy, creamy and at least drinkable over the next 5 years
