Un champán terrorífico. Da auténtica clase a la copa. Sexy y seductivo. Me he enamorado de esa nota a merengue. Pura exuberancia y opulencia manteniendo equilibrio y elegancia. La ganadora es la nariz pero la boca no desentona y es bastante larga. Fácil vino de la noche. Es la segunda vez que lo he bebido y siempre está delicioso.
Old golden colour. On the nose apple pie, honeyed with some saline hints. Sherry-like? Don't think so. Explosion in the mouth affecting different parts if it. Crispy. Complex, full personality here. Bitter on the palate with an acid finish. Delicious and surely unique.
Color a oro viejo. Tarta de manzana, meloso con un fondo salino en nariz. Oxidativo, ¿cómo un Jerez? No lo creo. Explosión en boca en diferentes puntos. Chispeante. Complejo y con personalidad En boca se muestra amargo y con un ácido final. Delicioso y seguramente único.

Certainly the best bottle of this that I've had out of several, this is at the peak of its maturity and drinking wonderfully. Tarlant's rich, vinous house style is writ large here, but there is an outrageous flamboyance to this wine with its notes of crystallised ginger and lemon curd that adds an extra dimension of excitement. A Liberace of a Champagne.

She's all stem ginger and cinnamon bagels. Sadly, this is the last of the case.

Historical Bodegas Bilbainas Tasting Event (plus dinner at La Piperna) (Bodega Santa Cecilia - Madrid): Terrific champagne. Class in the glass. Sexy and seductive. I fell in love with that meringue note. Pure lush and opulence keeping on balance and elegance.
Nose is a winner here but palate is consistent and quite long.
Easy WOTN. Second time I meet this and always delicious.

Similar to previous note. Forward and sexy, this has a louche charm all of its own. Gorgeous booze.
