Just another outstanding bottle! All the rest of these 2008's are safely in storage, this was our last in the home cellar. Future sampling 2028+.
Prior notes apply:
Nose has effervescent limestone water, crusty sourdough bread, excessively zested lemon and lemon creme pie.
Palate has saline lemon juice, lemon slice peel, an amazing level of acidity but equally balanced; what a finish!

Nov 26th, 2020Lovely nose. Really brioche, mineral, tensile, yellow fruits, lemon curd, wow, floral, super aromatic, palate is so elegant and lemony. Beautiful finesse and there is power and concentration but it’s so dazzlingly pure and fresh. Like a cloud. Silk. Silk cloud. Amazing mousse that envelops the lemon citrus flavors that fan out on the finish. The acidity is beautiful and so perfectly balanced. Terrific length and really really persistent. Sappy, saline finish. One of my favorite champagnes.
