Amazingly the current release of this Champagne. Mid lemon with a fine bead. Tasted blind the complexity fooled me and I did not pick it as a Blanc de Blancs. Great depth of flavour with pronounced minerality and a lemon creaminess. A brilliant champers still with a big future. I first tried this at Heidsiecks HQ in Reims. It blew me away then and continues to do so.

Beautifully made but not sure worth the price. That being being said a decent price for 95 vintage.
