Peachy gold. Debate about this. Apricots, brioche. Some mustiness. Oxidative notes but lovely balance. Mellow and beautiful with delicate acid. I think this is beautiful... others think it’s fading.

Pleasant surprise for a wine I found sitting on a dusty shelf in a ghetto liquor store.

Maybe it's a little oxidized, maybe a little flat, but it's 25 year old champagne.
