Charles Heidsieck Blanc de Millenaires 2004 Herlig åpen med nydelig frukt og perfekt mousse. Drikker helt strålende uten egentlig å vise noe særlig modning. Vil lett lagre 20 år til. Frukt, konsentrasjon, dybde, syre, mineralitet - alt er på plass. Meget lang finish som brer seg nydelig ut. Strålende. 94p

Just at peak or slightly over peak. Retains great mousse. Barely perceptible oxidative hints tell me that unless this was a leaky cork bottle or something along those lines, it may be tome to drink drink drink up! Still nice, but less complex than the bottle I had about 3 years ago. I have one more bottle and plan to enjoy this year.
Had at dinner with 3 other people.

Tom's Edinburgh Offline (Number One Balmoral): Side by side with the Comtes 2006 and these two wines could not be more stylistically different. This is a little darker, and the mousse is less fine but more piquant. It feels more evolved than the Comtes, leaner, but equally more "Champagne", with more of a brioche and bread nature to it. It's tart, chiselled, and extremely refreshing and probably aligns more to my view of a typical Champagne than the Comtes actually. Very nice indeed, hard to choose between the two, like chalk and cheese but both truly excellent.
