2011 Best bottle of this cuvee I've had! Ridiculously good, words don't do it justice 🤤

First Champagne field blend I've tried, so not much to compare it to. But it's such an intriguing and complex bottle, I look forward to trying more in the future.

One of the tastiest champagnes in a while. 90 year old vine field blend. Singular and delicious!

Wow, just wow.

Part of the blend comes from vines planted in 1923, another part from vines planted in the 50s—specially from a parcel comprised of all 7 varieties (supposedly more). Exquisitely light and balanced but with dozens of really interesting flavors — mandarin orange, pipe tobacco, sandalwood, flint, golden and red apple, marzipan, vanilla along with the usual melange of berries and chalk. It’s all about the poise, finesse and structure on this one though—like a gymnast nailing a dismount. Also, not bad with jalapeño poppers (or “muncher peppers” as they’re called on the Glue Pot’s English menu).
