    this bottle was really singing tonight - certainly mature but so delicious and complex but with a distinct lightness and freshness to it - lovely

    My last bottle of this champagne was totally corked. This one is much better.
    Golden in color with very thin bead of bubbles.
    Nose is still quite discreet with red berries, pastries, mushroom flavours.
    Medium body, frothy, with still very sharp acidity that has not Ben tamed after these many years. Some red berries, pastry, lemon, chalky.
    Excellent length.

    Light golden color
    Beautiful clean peach, honey and warm brioche on the nose
    It's concentrated, nicely tannic, balanced and just mouth wateringly delicious.
    So youthful... May have popped it a few years too early. Letting it breathe and it opens all up over the meal.
    Great stuff.

    Lovely, round, rich with notes of butter, citrus, some ginger. Very good length indeed, keeps going, this is a class act; open for buisness, but no hurry.

    (Disgorged in 2007, 60% Pinot Noir from Montagne de Reims and Vallée de la Marne and 40% Chardonnay from Côté des Blancs, dosage 4 gr/l)
    Yellow colour with a fine stream of tiny bubbles in the glass. Wonderful with citrus flowers, minerals, seashells and chalk in a still very youthful style on the nose. Smoothing acidity on the palate with red apples and a nice creaminess before showing lime citrus zest on the pleasant finish. Nice and lengthy finish showing butterscotch and butter for a very long time. This is starting to drink very well and should keep performing on this level for many years to come.
    (Best 2018-2038)
