  Magnum, with a cork that left black marks on the hands. Barely a bubble (just the slightest petilance). Deep yellow in colour. Rapidly developed in the glass to its full richness of brioche, honeysuckle etc. - lingering and beautifully subtle. No hint of sherry-type overtone. Can only believe it will still be delicious in another 10 years. A wine that is now etched in my memory and I feel incredibly fortunate to have tasted it.

  Condition of bottle was impeccable. Fresh with energy. Complex with brioche, honeysuckle, dried peels. Amazing - quite sure this will be top 3 champagne for me this year.

  Very much Sherried flavor out of bottle. Still with nice acidity and mineralfity. Opened over a couple of hours. Lovely wine

  Pronounced nose intensity with notes of honey, caramel, toast. Medium acidity. Still have effervescence. Drinking perfect.

  "Nick says ditto" (Chicago, IL): Original release. Sadly this has gone a bit long in the tooth for my taste. The nose shows a lot of mushroom and some sweet, sherried notes. On the palate there is but a faint bit of fizz; this is sweet in a very old school sort of way (high dosage), but for my palate, a lot more dirty/oxidized than I like for my champagne.
