Grand Cru

The anticipation and patience in waiting a year to re-taste this wine seem to have been well rewarded! The intense bouquet is rich with fried sesame, baked apple, notes of Jerez, a generous dollop of butter, chausson aux pommes, and lemon tart. The aftertaste is where this wine truly shines - long, delicate, and evolving, it's a testament to its quality and craftsmanship. Such a beautiful experience can indeed be heartwarming and overwhelmingly delightful. My pants are wet. Kudos to Benoît Lahaye for that!

Exciting Champagne from Bouzy. It is intense, complex and multilayered. The bouquet is full of mushrooms, Jerez, nuts, bruised apples, chaussons aux pommes, lilac flowers, lemon tart, pickles, and smoke. It's fascinating to witness how it reveals with time. It has a great volume, almost full body and a long and evolving taste.
