This is lovely, framing its baking bread, honey and citrus flavors with an elegant, focused presentation. Turns a little crisp on the finish. Drink now.
Deep flavoured and quite rich at first. Tense and tight. Dry savoury finish. Quite a bargain as it's almost as good as the 2002 vintage counterpart. GV [good value] Drink 2012-2015
Winston Churchill's favourite champagne and (on a much smaller level of importance) my NV champagne of choice, if you don't like this, then you'd hate Christmas in our house, cos it's on tap! Smooth with balanced acidity that won't strip the enamel off your teeth. Apples and pears in a class of bubbles.
Very interesting, with the Chardonnay component much in evidence. Neat, intriguing, very well balanced. Indisputably a fine wine with lovely texture and real complexity. Widely liked. Date tasted 18th Oct 05.
