Popped and poured; no formal notes. The “Extra Quality” is a silly, old-school sounding designation…but this is sort of an old-school style of Champagne. It was a little “meh” on the first pour; unwilling to show much. However, with some air it opened up and displayed a pleasant balance of fruit and autolytic character. Works a little better with food than an aperitif. Disgorged May of 2022 — 4 months ago

Great value grower champagne. Comes in half bottles, which is great for small celebrations. Apple, pear, bready. Will buy again. — 4 years ago

Follows an excellent 08 and def holds its own. Very very good bottle that is really underpriced. — a month ago
