A good champagne. Drank kind of… young? Balanced but not graceful, hefty but a little too eager. All of the flavor was BOOM, right up front, and it was more green apple rind than anything. Good - maybe not my thing. — 5 years ago

Last night (NYE). Good stuff. Not overly fruity and not dry. Nice balance. — 6 years ago
Ruby red, moderately extracted pigment. Dust and phenol notes in nose. Cherry, tart cherry, unripe cherry and cherry cough syrup flavors all emerge over time. Mild skin astringency. Good fruit, rounded mouthfeel, slightly bitter. Austere and largely unadorned style. Lactic finish emerges after three hours. — 7 years ago

Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of an hour. The NV Grand Vallée Extra Brut pours a straw color with a faint bronze tinge and persistent mousse. On the nose, the wine is developing with notes of fresh raspberries, strawberry, peach, lemon and limestone minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry with high acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is medium+ and packed with minerals. Quite lovely. Drink now. Disgorged Spring of 2023. — 2 months ago
