Consistent with previous note. This bottle had decent champagne character, with only slight bitterness at the end. The previously bottle was extremely bitter. For $30 this is reasonable quality, but given that it's "vintage" I was certainly hoping for more when I bought it. 88-89

Reruns - The Wine Event: Day 1, this was a combination of bitterness and sweetness. It only got to day 2 because no one (of 6 people) wanted to drink it. Day 2, this was significantly better. It had calmed down, had some robust toast, and it seemed like the sweetness and bitterness melded to a more balanced profile. I'm not scoring today, and I hope the next bottle shows better.

Reruns (Joe & Khem's Place, Mpls): On the sweet side, golden ripe fruit, but bitter on the palate. I wasn't really a fan.
