  Killing acidity and lovely bubbles but a hint to oxidative and powerful. Great with grilled meat. I would not wait much longer. Difficult vintage. Some green notes, nuts. 92

  Not sure of the provenance of this bottle but this was on the downslope with oxidative / oxidised notes of sherry that overpowered the red apple fruit. Big and powerful style of champagne, aged in oak barrels that gave it weight and broadness in terms of structure.
