Very good. Lots on the nose, apples and white flowers, white toast. apples to taste plus plenty citrus and light red berries. Full and vinous. Long. Very much better than expected.

Drunk the day after the 2007 RD so hard not to compare the two. This is a lot sweeter and less complex. Still a lovely champagne but not a great vintage.

I have said it before but this is one of my favourite styles and houses and this bottle was superb. Initially (again) hardly any nose but gradually opened up in glass. I have drink daters as up to 2028 which seems about right or perhaps a bit earlier.

A 65th Birthday Celebration (Schur House - Riverwoods IL): Small glass. Good weight, slightly tart, certainly bready. Not my fav style.
