Pale yellow, note much on nose, but hints of citrus and granny smith apple. Not much complexity. Lovely bead and effervescence, but not much behind it. Short finish, ~10-15s. Disappointing. 81 points (03/15/2004).
I don't understand the WS89 score on this.

Futronic - maybe it just needed some time (noticing that your note is from two years ago). The mag we had last night was quite good.

From magnum; Dark gold in color with citrus and hazelnut aromas and flavors. Not overly complex champagne but was a good match with the food. Perhaps because it was in magnum it had an almost vintage character. Forget shipping shock
this was a winner.

I too was pleasantly surprised with this wine especially given the price point ($65 shipped 2-day) and the fact that it arrived that afternoon and immediately hit the ice.
Good stuff.

A nice package for a medium-bodied champagne but a bit on the rustic side. Serve with food.
