Note di degustazione
Remarkably close to the 1996 in colour. Toasty notes dominate here with some sweetcorn, nutty and biscuity characters giving almost a warming character on the palate. Full-bodied, loads of complexity – love the purity of flavour. A glorious champagne with a winning combination of ripeness, maturation and plentiful acidity to keep everything fresh. (AWH)

A total turn-on, the 1995 Comtes de Champagne is utterly magnificent. Orange marmalade, mint, smoke, hazelnuts, white truffles and honey blossom come to life in an exquisite, resonant Champagne that delivers the goods, big time. Opulent and exotic yet miraculously fresh for a 20 year-old wine, the 1995 Comtes is in a beautiful spot to deliver maximum drinking pleasure. With time in the glass, the 1995 becomes even more finessed. Readers who own the 1995 or can find it are in for a real treat. Let's leave it at that.
Disgorged end of 2011. More mellow and complex on the nose than the 1996. Broad nose and then quite dry on the palate. Less juicy fruit. Just a little dusty and toasty on the palate. Lightly nutty. Even almost walnut skins – just a hint of astringency. But it's still charming. Just has lost a bit of fruit in the last few years. A little more 'relaxed' than the 1996. (JR)
