Comtes de Champagne Brut Blanc de Blancs Champagne Chardonnay

This is in a great place. For me the perfect bit between young and aged… some secondary notes. A softness and balance. Some honeyed notes. Real complexity and length. Yum

Boom! From the 1st sniff you knew this was special. This is all about layers of complexity on the nose and palate . Yet with all of that complexity it drank younger than you might have expected. I will treasure the few bottles I have left and be envious of those who were wise to have bought magnums.

Lemon, apple, yellow flowers. A beautiful sweet midpalate with really refined fruit. More fruit than austere structure but very pretty and delicious. Refined and long and gorgeous. In a lovely place right now.

Sweet at the edges. Fresh and supple. Very good

Aged perfectly. Drink now. A little nutty but fresh at the same time. Refreshing acidity and great golden fruit. Yum!

Lovely and balanced. Sweet with nice clarity and acidity

Light gold. Active and steady beads of bubbles in the glass. Youthful nose. Notes of citrus, lemon curd, wet river stones, some bread yeast and some almond paste. Creamy. This is still youthful but oh so good.

A great nose. Poised lemon, lime, slate and light floral notes. The palate has great fruit- citrus and mellow sweetness. No significant secondary notes yet but great freshness and balance. Years ahead but very good now.

Like brioche in a glass...

This has dropped its baby fat and his precise with incredible minerality and focus with tons of layers of fruit and a pristine laser beam focus and precision wow !
