The last bottle of this was a decided disappointment. I bought these several years ago (2007) and after tasting the first one, I was kicking myself for waiting too long. Note: I have held onto NV champagnes before that had continued to mature nicely for over a decade, but I just considered the whole demi-sec thing threw it all off. Well, faith restored. Sure, this is older—the brioche notes are accented, there is a bit of mustiness, the mousse is struggling, and the color is well into “golden” but those flavors all meld wonderfully together with just the right amount of sweetness.

Demi sec is sweeter than most champagne but was perfect appertaining to serve with hors d’oevres to Break Fast with family
