A very deep and vinous Champagne with great intensity and complexity. Is it superior to the many bottles of aged Champagne enjoyed alongside? Not really but it did show this great underlying complexity that emerged late. At Joomak.

it's a little bit off on the aroma at the beginning, but it's getting better after time. lots of toast, nutty, tropical fruits and ripen fruits flavor. very intense with good acidity.

Started out oxidative, if even advanced, which cleared up to bright acidity after time. Honeyed fruit, orange flowers, intense like an aged Chardonnay. Not the best example of this cuvée, not sure about this vintage. 93-94

Powerful with wide shoulders, mint, chocolate, Toffee but in an elegant way. For me reaching his Peak. a tremendous wine. I liked this style a years ago much more. 94

22 Top Flight Champagne's for E&R's 20th Anniversary (E&R Wine Shop, Portland OR): Aromas are nutty and feels a bit oxidized. Palate tastes of the cork, tastes oxidized, and shows bitter minerals. Yup, no dice on the finish... this one is wrong. Bummer!
