@Doug Powers Was it a Wine Workshop event? I recall the internal struggle about spending the money on these events. In hindsight they were”cheap” given the ascent in pricing that has occurred in the US market. 
@Ira Schwartz— I think those tastings were sponsored by a few guys, one guy was Bob Millman, whose name I see on emails from Grapes just north of the city? But cannot remember the name of their company from back then. Sorry.
@Doug Powers I was very late to the game , did not start attending these events until about ‘99/‘00
Taittinger
Comtes de Champagne Grand Crus Brut Blanc de Blancs 2002
Yum! What a lineup! Thanks for sharing!
Omg…I adore CDC…and the ‘02 has on two separate occasions simply blown away Cristal and DP… simply conscious altering!
Jacques Selosse
Lieux Dits Cramant Chemin de Châlons Extra Brut Blanc de Blancs Grand Cru Champagne Chardonnay
need a home equity loan to buy these . . .
@Alan Weinberg I purchased both the Selosse and the Salon when prices were expensive but “doable”. I recall saying to myself when I bought them it’s now or never , unfortunately we are now in the “never” world.
Just like we opened at Chelsea. Ha.
