This is the 2013 vintage Extra Brut. Delicious and easy, but not particularly complex for the money. Not the best QPR or vintage.

En magnum. Young but expressive. Fantastic bottle of Champagne. Shows the house style beautifully

Just so good. Firing on all cylinders. Lots to talk about but so easy to drink I don’t want to talk. Fresh pastry. Goodbye 2020.

I'll tell anyone who will listen to stock up on 2004 Champagne before it is gone! This bottling is composed of 70% Pinot Noir and 30% Chardonnay and is finished at 0 dosage. While very dry, this is not nearly as aggressive as most 0's. The super cold fermentation reveals some very pretty red fruit to go along with the high wattage minerality. With Antoine Billecart.

Yeast, buttered toast, orchard fruit, ginger and floral aromas on the palate it's powerful with orchard fruits, citrus peel, ginger flavors with a mineral driven finish. 2004 Vintage #enofylzwineblog #Champagne #champagnecampaign
