Previous 2 bottles have had evidence of Brett. The Brett more noticeable on the nose than the palate. Still very drinkable - remember, it is Leroy. The following night the Brett much less noticeable. More savoury than fruit driven - a lovely texture and mouthfeel. All in all a good Village Bourgogne if not overpriced. — 6 months ago

The Vinloq System was designed to be used on still wines only. However, sparkling wines are amazing
👅This is a great summer champagne and it combines crisp flavors with a touch of oxidation and solid minerality.
Honey crisp apple, even cider, and bruised apples are featured. Quite powerful personality. Lemon peel sweeps the palate clean on the finish.
Develops some creaminess as it warms

Drinking the tail end of another dinner here. Losing a bit of vigour after two days opened, but still showing heaps of textural richness and chewy energetic fruit. Plums, cranberries, spice, and earthy nuances. Impressively long finish. Wow! Sadly, the bouquet was the let down, whereby the expectedly floral notes have disappeared at this stage and a light musk has started developing. Nevertheless, I can’t discount that this was an excellent aperitif. — a year ago
