Medium deep copper orange, salmon pink touches . On the nose slightly toasty at first , then rose, ginger , red orange , strawberry and lemon rind, quite intriguing and constantly changing in the glass. On the palate quite creamy with red currant , cranberry , raspberry and red orange notes with some refreshing mineral touches. Good acidity , fills out well on the palate , with good length and very good balance, elegantly structured. This is drinkable now though will improve and hold well over the next 15 years or so. — 7 days ago

One of the most distinctive and recognizable Rosé Champagne’s in the biz and growing more elusive by the day, LC18 Fac-Simile is superb today and continues to evolve beautifully with a multidimensional, vibrant and layered expression of its rich and floral red berry fruit, chalky minerality and sea spray salinity that lead to a long and exhilarating finale. So good 🤗 — 2 months ago

Nice yeasty nose, super dry, very little RS, and perhaps less complexity than anticipated — a month ago

2500!! It only seems appropriate that it’s Champagne and why not make it a Special Club from Gaston Chiquet. The 2014 is a Chardonnay driven (38% Pinot Noir) cépage from predominately 1er Cru vineyards in Dizy with a dash of Grand Cru fruit from Aÿ. Popped and poured. The wine pours a bright straw color with a persistent mousse. Moderate intensity. On the nose, tropical fruits (pineapple), lemon, a little raspberry, some brioche and chalky minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry with good acid. The notes from the nose are confirmed. There’s beautiful texture with a long, chalky mineral finish. Elegant and superbly balanced. This drinks very well right now but could age for another 5+ years easy. Disgorged December of 2021. — a month ago
