Medium straw color. Citrus aromas, lightly floral and raw biscuit. Sexy AF champagne, complex with a racy citrus punch. Could use some salty caviar to balance it. Definitely can go another 8-10 years. It’s a Grande Dame, absolutely amazing!

A floral nose and fruity palate that displays both poise and strength. The finish is generous with flavors of almond, dried apricot, and candied ginger.

Delta lounge a nice way to end our trip. I find most of the 12’s open with lots of delicious fruit. This had pear, peach with a creamy texture.

Real dreams of Champagne. Citrus with sharp acidity.

I could drink this any day any time. Absolutely phenomenal champagne. Smooth, bubbly, lovely blend of flavors. This vintage was incredibly light.

90% Pinot noir and you can tell. Medium body but light on its feet. Exotic and luscious.
