Friday late night at home with neighbourhood friends. Tasted blind. Drank in Gabriel Standart. Disgorged October 2023. Base 2019. Appearance is clear, medium intensity, yellow gold colour with possibly a pinkish tint. Strong bubbles. Thin legs. Nose is clean, medium intensity, with aromas of yeasty bread, soda green apple, yellow apple and pears, golden peach. Developing. On the palate, dry, high acidity, medium- alcohol (12.5%), medium+ body. Medium+ flavour intensity, with fruity flavours of pineapple, yellow pear, golden peach, soda green apple, expressive bready yeast and toast oak. Long bready finish. Very good quality. Fresh and no oxidative element yet. More bottle ageing should add on on better complexitry.

Dinner at the house of Arnold and Cora: aggressive mousse, that fades to pleasant quickly in the glass. Some apple and minimal nutty impression. Dry, good acidity. Good wine without being impressive. 91/90

100% meunier grapes. A very fine, fruity and complex champagne. Elegant, very well balanced champagne with freshness and layering: I tasted dried fruit. It has a fine acidity. The wine looks amber colored. The legs are medium. There is no sediment in the bottle.

July 2022 dg, 2018 base. Showing rich and a bit oaky still. Didn't like this disgorgement as much as earlier versions. Maybe it just needs more time.
