This is oozing all of the lovely things from mature champagne that I love. It has biscuity yeasty and nutty aromas, plenty of creamy citrus and stone fruit, then a long and balanced and bright finish. Hard to slow down and appreciate as it begs you to come back and get another sip. WOTY and not a moment too soon.
Champagne steal of my lifetime as a $20 from WineBid ($27 to my door) about 6 years ago.

Just a glass on day 1. It is driven by aromas and flavors of bread dough, yeast and some subdued fruit with a touch if unwelcomed bitterness. On Day 3 it was much better with more expressive fruit and no hint of bitter.

lightly golden. creamy, toasty, ripe golden apple, touch of apricot. sweet peach and lemon with very good persistence, laserlike precision and chalky, very chewy finish. Wait for the rest!

Scattered fine bubbles. Medium yellow, in color. Yellow apple, brioche, biscuits, baked bread, lemon. Creamy and yeasty finish.
