Möet & Chandon Vintage 1985. Gunpowder, reductive sulfuric aromas and bitter lime zest on palate. Tart acidity completely lacking complexity. Must be faulty. Avoid

Not as good as the previous bottle. Quite generic mature Champagne without particular interest. Lots of dried fruits, but not as lively as this should be.

SLDS December 2016: Cocoa, earth, ginger, orange and lemon pie. Beautiful youthful acidity playing off against the earthy aged notes. Lovely poise, this is in a great zone for drinking.

Deep yellow. Quite a lot of bubbles left, but they disappear soon when in the glass. Nice nose of melon, candy, sweet exotic fruits. Concentrated, developping taste, overall that was an interesting, changing wine. A pleasant surprise!
