Had with Easter breakfast. The Champagne has a nose apple, lemon peel and a toastiness fairly typical of Champagne. Tremendous balance perhaps due to the Non Vintage style. This style really does help resolve acidty which can be so dominant in Champagnes. Finish is pear, yellow apple and a limestone minerality.

First wine of the night. It had once again a nose of green apple, lemon rind and a was very toasty in a style which was fairly typical of Champagne. Tremendous balance perhaps due to the Non Vintage style. This style really does help resolve acidty which can be so dominant in Champagnes. Finish is pear, yellow apple Nd limestone minerality.

Gourmetklubbens femtiosjätte middag (A+N, Sundbyberg): (Disgorged in April 2021, base year 2017, 100% Chardonnay from Chouilly) Light yellow colour with a maturing nose showing hazelnuts, citrus and chalk in a very pleasant way. Still very crisp and citrus driven on the palate with two years extra cellaring still covering the butter notes hiding underneath. This is very good right now, but should keep evolving for some more years.. (Best with 3-9 years extra cellaring)
