Delightfully carbonic and stemmy. Notes of tart and ever so slightly underripe blackberries and raspberries. Very floral and true to Fleurie. Love it. Wish I saved it for Thanksgiving. — 4 days ago

Prior notes still apply, delicious bottle.

Nose has toasted brioche, grilled lemon, warm lemon creme, lemon zest, oxidized pear slice and fresh, rising bread dough. Palate has lemon pound cake, cold toast, limestone chips, dried lemon slice and (light) candied orange.
Great mid-palate, a restrained richness is all elegance, acid balance is perfect and not pulling you one way or another. At 15 years past vintage, a great example of finesse in Champagne.

On the Lawn at Tanglewood this evening with the Boston Symphony Orchestra.

We're getting the luxury of enjoying Mr. Williams two nights in a row...what a great weekend of Contemporary music! — 3 years ago

Took me two years to get some for the shop. Bigger and darker then your typical Fleurie. Was drinking well but a little too young. This will get better wit age and I look forward to revisiting. — 3 years ago
