If there was a perfect champagne to accompany caviar, this is it. A beauty, nice bubbles in a light frothy mousse. Aromas of stone fruits and floral scents. Pear, Apple and Peach flavors were well balanced with acidity. A meal on its own. Tasting Sample.

Dense and power packed as should be expected from Vilmart. Red apple not green. Brioche and meringue. Very good.

Nice vintage Champagne. Soft bubbles, good yeastiness with a ton of acid on the finish. May need any these few years to come into balance, was a bit disjointed on the finish. Still very nice.
