@Benjamin Keator had his hosting at the CC tonight and it was absolutely incredible. What a night of gorgeous wines! All wines are guessed blind.
My guess here was ‘04-06 French champagne. I couldn’t guess a house, but I was able to rule out what it wasn’t (PH, Dom, Krug). This wasn’t reductive enough to be west coast. Balanced sweetness and yeastiness well.

Rock solid effort. Served blind, I was tilting towards BdB about 10 years old. Way more elegant than my memory serves me.

The more I taste 06 champagne the more I love 06. The more Henriot I drink the more I like it too.

Keep the 2006 train rolling! Lively fruit and acidity blending so well.

12 years old and super complex and mellow in bubbles. Low in acid, high in beeswax (perhaps aged too long), lingers for minutes.
