At the reception following the (for this Covid year) pre-recorded inspiring Nobel Lectures by David Julius and Ardem Patapoutian, the Nobel Assembly was treated to this gem of a bubbly; quality and style like Ch Heidsieck. Outstanding! — 2 years ago

What a nose! Roasted hazelnuts, roasted almonds, and pecans. Meyer lemon curd, petrol, crystallized honey. This completely over delivered. Thanks to @David L for sharing this gem with us. — 5 years ago

Jacquesson & Fils

Cuvée N° 743 Extra Brut Champagne Blend

Year in and year out, the 7XX series by Jacquesson is, to my palate, one of the finest NV champagnes money can buy. They were one of the first to openly declare their base vintage for their NV champagnes by using this series. No. 743 is based on the 2015 vintage, a warmer year, and the wine displays the roundness of the vintage with aplomb. The nose is incredible; fresh and pure like a smell of an alpine breeze on a sub-0° day. Light red and orchard fruits. On the palate, gratuitous fruit with green apples, pears (think those “wind-scarred” Harry & David, Royal Riviera pears) and minerals. There is plenty of acid for lift which also contributes to the length on the finish. This is a hedonistic edition of the 7XX series, delivering immense pleasure already. You could probably age it, but why? Disgorged August 2019. Over 215,000 bottles made. — 3 years ago

Veuve Clémence Grand Cru Champagne Chardonnay

Micro-bubbles galore, Yum! This might be close second for a Friday evening standard for @David T but tonight it is flowing into glasses on the complete opposite side of the Country. A wonderful Blanc de Blanc Champagne.

Nose has freshly scrubbed lemon, grapefruit peel, sliced Granny Smith apple, wet chalk, cold brioche and Gardenia blossom in a breeze.

Palate is fresh orange peel, grapefruit peel (like really wow), tart green apple, fresh walnut, crunchy brioche with a little hint of sweetened butter and a splash of acidic ocean water.

Finish is intense, yet elegant and lasting for many minutes. We are quite looking forward the the evolution of this bottle across the evening, as it warms from 46°F and gains air time.

Thank you
@David T @Sofia Jalilie for allowing us into your week closing tradition. The next bottle should have us closer together.
