Suave in texture and earthy in flavor, this is a serious, traditional style of vintage Champagne. Has a subdued core of fruit flavor, with a sense of restraint and ample accents of yeasty complexity. Drink now through 2002. You won't soon forget this vivid and expressive Champagne. It packs in compound layers of citrus, vanilla, pear and nutmeg that harmonize and longer on the finish.
Bright acidity makes it extra refreshing and layered.
It has really opened up since last year. Best from 2000 through 2010. A grand, traditional Champagne in the best sense. Full-bodied, beautifully balanced and luxuriously smooth in texture, offering subtle, complex accents of toasted almond to complement the base of fine fruit flavor. Drink now through 2003.
