Day after, holding well for pn, 2016 — 4 months ago
For the price, I expected a lot more. So did the rest on the table. Probably too young as it did improve with air, but I’ve had youthful (and cheaper) Champagne’s that performed far better than this. Started off with heaps of pears, bruised apples, and almonds on the nose. The palate was concentrated, juicy and almost too fruity for me (apples and apricot for days!). Air brought about more cut and chalkiness, as well as some floral notes. In short, I expected more depth. I suspect I’m just not a fan of the vintage. Time will tell. — 2 months ago

Champ Persin Brut. Marvelous. — 9 days ago
Medium straw . Quite green fruit nose , quince , bruised apple , white flowers . On the palate more strict quince fruit with a prominent mineral , chalky , oyster shell notes . Orange peel , white pepper on the finish with decent length with saline tinge . Really quite distinct, for drinking now and over the next 5-7 years . — 2 months ago
2023/12/31 with steamed spiny lobster and karaage. Started very tight, with prominent and steely acidity. With air, gradually opened to reveal intense citrus and chalk. Definitely a sleek, tensed personality, but likely to get even better with time — 4 months ago

Amazing but will reward with time! Such serious structure on this Pinot — 24 days ago
