Klassisk bdb med glassepler og syrlig frisk hvit frukt. Ikke noen spesielt utviklet, til tross for alderen. Liniær og presis i munn, fin match til caviar.

02 great vintage, an absolutely stunning champagne, vivid bubbles, aromatic nose with complex palate. It took 4h to reach the peak and can still age for several years.

(Gaston Chiquet "Spécial Club") ($74.00) Disgorged 1/11. Worth the wait, but….go on waiting. At this very moment the 2000 is the better drink. That will change. The great ’02 aromas creep out of the disgorgement fog and the mid-palate has a liqueurous essence-of-Champagne umami; it’s coiled like a raw croissant, and with air it’s like the instant you detect it baking – aaahhh! The finish is solid and potentially profound. Interesting that these late-released ‘02s from Nicolas and Didier Gimonnet are so backwards, when most of the vintage was so precocious and forthcoming.

Excellent aged grower champer with plenty of life left. No rush.

Didn't get the month but a 2011 disgorgement... so 9 years on lees.
Mid gold, slightly bronzing color.
Quite aged on the nose, caramel, hazelnut, brioche, strawberries.
Fresher than the nose on the palate. Nice bead. Great cut, with green apple, tart cherry and some marzipan.
In a good place, but perhaps one not too age much longer?
