Cristal Brut Rosé Champagne Blend 2006

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

#AgedWineTuesday

Pretty color of peach with a dark golden hue.

Fresh on the nose with limes, raspberries, strawberries, lemons, green apples, herbs, yeast, minerals, spices and light earth.

Medium bodied with medium plus acidity and tiny bubbles.

Dry on the palate with peaches, apricots, apples, raspberries, cherries, spices, herbs, yeast, light brioche, minerals and white pepper.

Long finish with limes and light bitter herbs.

This 18 year old Rosé Champagne is absolutely fantastic. Drinking very fresh right now, elegant and rich.

Showing nice complexity with a nice mouthfeel. Well balanced and very entertaining.

Needed 30 minutes to open up and show its complexity, but good right out of the bottle too.

Wine Enthusiasts 95 points. Wine Advocate 96 points.

Will continue to age nicely in the next 10 years.

Easy drinking and good by itself or with food. Delicious stuff.

A blend of 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay. Aged for 6 years on the lees, with 20% in oak barrels.

12% alcohol by volume.

93 points.

$1,000.

Cristal Brut Champagne Chardonnay Pinot Noir Blend 2015

We had this a few days ago and I misplaced my notes. Citrus mineral and intensity I recall. Probably committing infanticide drinking this now but there were good reasons to. Firstly our son and wife plus our daughter home for Christmas from New York and secondly my retirement after 53 years at McDonald Group. — 10 days ago

L'Ermitage Brut Anderson Valley Chardonnay Pinot Noir 2017

Golden color, fine bubbles. On the nose pear, bread and butter. First sip tastes and smells like freshly baked bread, followed high acid, pear and peach. A little bit off dry. Delicious. — a month ago
