Tried many times to upload a picture last night, without success. Feed wasn’t refreshing either.
This had begun its decline. Oxidized aroma when the cork was pulled. Cardboard and lemons on the nose. Palate was lively with exotic sweet fruits and baked apples. Remaining acidity kept this from falling off a cliff. Drink these now. — 2 months ago
June 2024 disgorgement; would’ve preferred to pop this +12 months (vs. 6), as it would certainly benefit from some time. A grower BdB favorite; of course made from 100% Chardonnay, coming from several Grand Cru villages in the Côte des Blancs. The Cuvée de Réserve is a blend of more than twenty vintages, dating back to 1988 (via the solera method)! Peters considers this their “flagship” champ, even at the NV price point.
Firm upfront with a rather long finish. Sharp acidity; strong lemon, pale stone fruit, orange zest, and young tangerine notes. Medium body with pillows to carry you through. Steel vs. wood. 12% ABV. Simply delicious. — 2 months ago
