Melissa shared this at Swrl during post blind pizza etc. 1968 in 2/26. Fun — 25 days ago
Medium lemon straw , slight deeper than the P2 1998 served alongside . More persistent perlage than the P2, very fine . Here the nose is slightly deeper and more penetrating, with rich spiced citrus , buttered brioche , crushed chalk , seashell hints . This is powerful and dense on the palate , lemon , mineral , and chalky hints , fresh and vital, white flowers , even a touch of Indian spice. Long and balanced , still pretty youthful and probably needs more time to fully integrate the shear extract this has on the palate. Perfectly formed , with a fantastic future , better in 5 -8 years and will last a further decade. The complete package, spellbinding. — 8 days ago
172 continuing to drink beautifully 👌🏻 — an hour ago
1988 vintage. Medium body. Lighter Sauternes color. Plenty of golden/ripe notes along with exquisite caramel influence but it was the acidity that stole the show. Didn’t even have to cross the fingers, hold my breath or “pretend” it was still alive. Fully mature and raring to go. Not improving but not declining either. So much life ahead. I think “Woof!” accurately sums it all up. 3.20.26. — a day ago
Når det kommer til champagne, er jeg åbenbart meget basic. 🤷♂️ — 2 days ago
163 ÈME Edition In a very good spot. — 5 hours ago
This is aging very well. 6 more bottles of the 168 in the cellar and very much looking forward to how they will evolve. Right now the 168 is in a great place and the 2nd maturation flavors are beginning to appear. Floral, acidic, Krug, caramel - it’s all there. Early to drink, but much more to come — a month ago
"Odedi"
Lemon in color with a golden hue.
Pretty nose with flowers, yeast, citrus, lemons, green apples, limes, spices, herbs and minerals.
Medium bodied with high acidity, and medium sized bubbles.
Dry on the palate with limes, grapefruits, citrus, green apples, light earth, minerals, herbs, sea salt and light spices.
Long finish with limes and light herbs.
This is a delicious Champagne, but feels extremely young. Elegant and nicely balanced. Complex and interesting. Rich and tangy. Soft and smooth.
Much better after 45 minutes of airtime, and better when not too cold.
Will continue to age nicely in the next 20 years.
Good by itself as a sipping wine or with food.
A blend of 45% Pinot Noir, 37% Chardonnay and 18% Meunier.
12.5% alcohol by volume.
92 points.
