Toasty and deep. Lots of rolling layers. Some spice mixed with the luscious aged notes

Oct 30th, 2022(17.5/20) Светло-янтарный цвет. В букете доминируют третичные ароматы - палая листва и лежалое яблоко, дополненные ароматами сдобы и винограда. Тельное с хорошо интегрированной, свежей кислотностью. Во вкусе варенье из яблок и манго, сдобная булка. Взрослое, очень красивое вино.

1970 Delamotte late disgorged Collection Champagne. In magnum. Blend of varietals - not Blanc de Blancs. 65% Chardonnay, 20% Pinot Noir, 15% Meunièr. Deep Gold. Desert like on the nose - apricots, cream, fried mushrooms, truffles - but no oxidation. Quince, and Alsatian liqueurs. Kirsch. On the palate, full concentration. Good acidity, fully integrated. Rich apricot compote, butterscotch, milk chocolate and vanilla essence. Good mid palate. Huge finish - concentrated and persistent. Slight sour and sweet thing going on. Wow! NB: with air, some soy sauce, consume, and savoury sweet combo that is delicious. Also some chalky and slate notes are now developing in the glass.
