Nice medium dosage brut with loads of flavor. Mag became lees-y and rich as we approached the finish and it warmed. Mineral and lime interplay was superb. Gorgeous golden Buddha hand zest, pith menagerie, and a tangy white berry. .

Pale gold. Interplay of cultured cream and papaya with lemon, golden apple and tea rose follow through. Specks of lime scent swirl, discombobulated in the frozen, underripe pineapple expanse. Toasty frame drops quickly in a lemon and lime juice flume made of sterling silver. Kafir leaves in lightest brine add a minerality that defines the space including a real suggestion of white pepper on the finish. Despite the description, this is not overly racy, instead, relying on its needles and pins to deliver the concentrated citric doses with precision. Finely ground chalk and salt rock it’s high mark. .

Lemon peel, yellow apple, crab apple, Nicco wafer, crispy veggie dumpling, orange pith, pear blossom, and lime. Fantastic, juicy lemon-lime, citrus entry that puckers up to dried star fruit and lemon pith. Chalky and lip smacking with lemongrass finishing amidst crystalline ginger and ginseng whispers. Great holiday brunch sabrage with @thei.llustrious.13 Courtney, Tiffani, Nete, Richard, and Eleonora Gale.

Delicate, clean mushroom initially, turns slowly to brioche and pastry, with zinnia and magnolia-ocean and a delicate mushroom sauté. Deep lemon-lime instantly purifies and reveals layers of sublimely thin croissant flake. Lime zest and tart lemon lift airily from the glass while the biscuity elements complete the perfect cross-section of earthy root, mushroom, flower and alpine sky. Ethereal. #happynewyear #caviar #newyear #osetra #russianosetra #champagne #krug #krug166theditionbrut #kruggrandcuvée #bubbles #champagnedreams #chamagneandcaviar #2021 — 4 months ago

Salmon hue. Notes of strawberry, grapefruit peel, blood orange, dried white flowers, and sourdough on the nose. Tart and crisp, almost bitter, on the palate, with a chalky minerality.

Vintage champagne and caviar! This briny number is the perfect complement! Salty tartar biscuit nose with lemon essence, lime, pear in first baking stage, Indian gum, lemon madeleines, turmeric, and light powder of ginger. Tangy mouthfeel, green olive texture and ramping bite, a flinty spark, golden apple, gooseberry, and all of it honeyed with age, but distinctly dry. Delicious! #champagne #vintagechampagne #caviar #champagneandcaviar #bubbles #champagnecampaign #champagneproblems #champagnelife — a year ago

Palm frond, light olive essence, smoky-sweet petrol resonance over poppyseed pastry, rhubarb-wild strawberry cream, lemon custard, and palmyra. Lemon lime zippy while racing across the tongue, with grapefruit zest, lime zest and raspberry sizzle. Gorgeous and lean. Two palms up! #palmerandco #palmerandcochampagne #champagne #bubbles #Reims #àreims #brutchampagne #brutreserve — 9 months ago

Baked lemon, fresh lime, lemon tort, yeasty tartar biscuit, dried pineapple, tangerine peel. Tangerine and apricot on entry, full-flavored, and lively, lime zest, creamy lemon curd, with a lemongrass edge. #sturgeonmoon #caviar #bubbles #casparkling #belatednatlcaviarday #sparklingwine #bubblesandroe #osetra — 9 months ago

9.6

Lime, lemon pith, chive, coconut water and cucumber freshness with a frozen sage leaf purity and rainy day aromas. Massive entry with bright lemon juice tempered by tartar biscuit, then overwhelmed by lime and orange zest, grapefruit whiteness, starfruit, gooseberry and chalky, racy, steely minerality that texturizes the whole as it rockets across the tongue, white pepper bobs in the citric river that flows endlessly beyond each sip. Incredible resonance! .

Briny lemon, dried apricot and hints of dried pineapple are eclipsed by ginkgo and light rye bread, cantaloupe and lime; Gardenia and white pepper with lillies. Exquisite mouthfeel, of tangerine, clementine, orange blossom, ripe lemon, creamy lemon panna cotta, white pomegranate seeds, olive cameo that dissipates into a sea spray and Northwest oyster with briny sweetness. #HappyNewYear #Champagne #growerschampagne #growersblend #bubbles #Palmerandcompany #Reims #brutréserve #brut #palmer #sparkler #frenchwines #france — 2 years ago
