Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of 90min before and during dinner. The 1995 pours a straw color with a gorgeous, persistent mousse. On the nose, the wine is developing with apples, ripe passion fruit, fresh brioche, lemon curd, toasted marshmallow and minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry with high acid. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long. A freaking delicious Champagne. Drink now through 2035.

Light to medium gold color, fine bubbles and nice energy in the flute. Great nose with notes of lemon, some baked bread, some vanilla, some cut apples and white chalky stone/soil. Great balance in the mouth. Very linear and certainly not flamboyant in its presentation. Somewhat quiet versus past bottles of this, yet the precision and quality are as evident as ever.
