Something different. Bit hot and very foursquare, but not trying to be anything else. Ideal for a ragout. — 6 years ago

La Grande Année Brut Champagne Blend

Have enjoyed this wine for the past three years but it’s just getting better. So plump and juicy with rounded fruit flavor. An absolute joy. In coming years my view will be that “04 is a better vintage than ‘02 despite all the hype around the later. — 7 years ago

Lanson

Extra Age Brut Champagne Blend

Intressant nytt vin från Lanson. Gillar en stora stilen, matkompatibelt. Lanson-syran har slipats ner men adderar mycket fräschör till den mogna frukten och brödiga tonerna. Reservviner från 00, 02 och 04. — 7 years ago

Clos du Mesnil Brut Blanc de Blancs Champagne Chardonnay 2002

Freshly released by krug, unsure if its commercially available at this time. Soon. Super bright bubbley briochey nutty yum. Consumed with the other 02 offerings from one of the 250 3 packs made — 8 years ago

Brut Champagne Blend 2004

Lemon color. Medium to small bubbles. Fragrant nose, with lime, lemon, apple, hints of tropical fruit, and a little yeast. Sharp palate, a little more crisp than the 02, ending with a medium+ to long finish. — 6 years ago

Krug

Brut Champagne Blend 1985

This is a special wine for me. Not only because it was eye opening, but it elevated my interest in wine. To try it again and see it's evolution was truly a privilege. An opera of secondary aromas. Nutty, especially walnuts and almond with biscuit notes. Intense ripe apples, while beautifully textured. Bubbles were not boisterous, but were soothing and gentle towards the end. A wine that makes you think. What a memorable moment. — 8 years ago

@Kim Stanbro Never posted the 2001 👎. The 03/04/05/06 are very nice. The O2 is a better bottle of wine. Obviously this is just my opinion. I'm certain yours might be better than mine. Either way you're enjoying some very nice wines. Cheers to you!

I have just fallen in love with Barolo. Just try to drink them whenever the opportunity exists. Enjoying this fella with gnocchi in downtown Cleveland. Last night with my daughter before she starts her college swim career at Cleveland State. — 6 years ago

Ruinart

Dom Ruinart Brut Champagne Blend 2002

02’ - not a huge aromatic nose but pristine presentation of grapefruit zest, white flowers, chalk, and a hint of smoke and spice. The palette feels a bit tired, the acid is medium, though the finish sticks around for a decent time. This seems past its prime, sadly. A lot of bottle variation in these right now I believe. — 7 years ago

This wine has 2003-2007 inside, disgorged 02/2014, fantastic nose, minerals, some gasolin which disappeared, great integrated bubbles, taste very long some honey, some sweetness , though dosage 0.7 g, a masterpiece — 7 years ago

CVed 1/16/18. A mini vertical of '02-'03-'05 after yesterday's '05. Lightest ruby color of three. Earthy autumn leaves and red brutes on nose. Silky well balanced palate and neon body with good lively texture and complex delicious finish. Better drinking more than the '05. Supposed more feminine and better balance. Wow, opened 2/1/23 and it’s fine! Great with Evan’s Salted Crispy Pork. — 8 years ago
