Hard to add to Motz's notes below. Lovely deep red colour. This is a classic one and certainly can develop more. Shared with a small group, mostly not Port converts. They became so after this wine! Glad I laid down a few bottles. See you in ten years.

High acidity on the palate is not to my style. I view this a lighter aperitif, certainly it is better as it warms up and flavors come out. Others have done a fine job of indicating the profile. Drank this after the NV Le Mesnil, and this really doesn’t come close for memorability. So, I won’t rate in fairness to that comparison; they are very different. Won’t buy again, too many other champagnes we find superior.

From a 375ml bottle. Continues to impress. Becoming one of my favorite larger makers.
