Note di degustazione
Fairly light vaguely brioche nose. Like the Dom 1985, tight, but more to be expected in a Salon. Very long and neat. Marked freshness. Dry finish. Svelte. Scored 17.5 and to drink 2000-2020 A second bottle showed a much more evolved nose. Very much more interesting and nuanced. Hint of porcini dried mushrooms. Long and toasty. The score is for the second bottle. (JR)

Knockout aromas of lemon, lime, toffee, grilled nuts, nutmeg and minerals; conveys a strong impression of soil character. Great thickness and brightness in the mouth; offers a compelling combination of lemon and orange citricity and complex yeast autolysis notes, and near-perfect harmony of young and maturing elements. This outstanding, elegant Champagne shows an extraordinary creamy richness yet is still rather folded in on itself. Has the sheer structure and grip to develop in bottle for a decade or two. Finishes with great nutty length.
