  PnP chilled. Stunning, exceptional stuff. Lighter bodied style with just a touch of lees and toast. Clean, bright, fruit. Bubble stream was fine and light but exploded in the mouth. Long finish. You could drink the all day.
  Wonderful Champagne. Don/Julie's bottle.

  much controversy exists re: 2011
  some in a wine group said to avoid completely
  ok , not the greatest comtes I have ever had, but the bubbles and crispness were similar to other better years
  liked by all at tango sur
  I would say this is not the year to lay down for a long time

  Excellent champage and really blossomed as it opened up and warmed up. Fantastic initial light flavors of lemon-like flavors that Bec one more complex after an hour or so. Great QPR.

  Like drinking the water from a cold mountain stream of snowmelt running over river rocks. Austere but with depth and intrigue. Closed up right now, like the 2008 Comtes was a few years ago; it remains to be seen whether it will open up in the same way — hard to guess given how few 2011s there are.
