One of the better champagnes I’ve had in a while and I don’t usually like champagnes. — 2 months ago
There are very few moments in my time that have had a greater call for Champagne than when I opened this, on June 3rd 2025. My football team here in the UK, Oldham Athletic, promoted for the first time in my life, which I watched at Wembley. I know this seems quite trivial and meaningless to most of you, but I must document it here, so please indulge me. Up the Latics!
As for the wine, this was a hasty cellar pull and I didn’t want anything OTT. But isn’t Taittinger fantastic? For me, one of the best Grandes Marques pound-for-pound. This bottle had a bit of age too. Really superb, drinkable stuff. — 20 days ago
Dry not sweet but easy to drink. — 2 months ago
Damn. This is delicious and in an amazing spot 😍
It has effusive aromas & flavors black cherry preserves, dried fig, prune, rose, graphite, coffee grounds, blackberry bramble, licorice, leather, tobacco, peat, clove, star anise, cardamom, cured meat, black peppercorn, wet earth, mushroom, potting soil, balsamic glaze..
On the palate it’s dry with high - barely so - alcohol (14% ABV). The acidity is lovely and energetic. Tannins are silky and well-integrated.
100% Syrah from Hermitage hill, biodynamic and lower intervention in the winery. Textured and deep.
Delicious !!!!

"Odedi"
Light peach in color.
Medium bodied with medium plus acidity.
Dry on the palate and complex.
Showing limes, green apples, herbs, earth, yeast, brioche, light strawberries, spices, minerals and white pepper.
Nice finish, elegant and easy drinking.
Good right out of the bottle, and better with airtime.
Good by itself or with food. I paired it with fried shrimp and calamari.
A blend of 40% Pinot Noir, 35% Chardonnay and 25% Pinot Meunier. Bottled in 2009 and disgorged in 2017.
12% alcohol by volume.
91 points.
