Even after having been forgotten in the fridge behind rows of White Claw, Hampton Water and an unknown bottle of white with a faint Co...-Dur.. label, this eau gazeuse more than held its own. Huzzah!

DG 04/2015 Classically ‘Beaufort’: elegantly oaky, cough syrup-style touch, red forest fruits in syrup, blackberry liquor, overbaked apples, black cherries covered with chocolate, almost Coca-Cola taste (sarsaparilla), resin, pine nuts, some raw almonds, mixed spices (clove, cinnamon, black pepper), maple syrup. Much higher acidity than the Ambonnay 2003, and more ‘alive’ in general. We adore this producer’s characteristic wines, perfect for ageing: such elegant oak, ripe fruit, and delicate oxidative notes. 93pt

A very off bottle, with high levels of volatile acidity, and totally out of sorts.
