Another day, another Champagne. Tasted this on two separate occasions. Once as an aperitif and with appetizers, and once (a separate bottle a few days later) with a main course of grilled Mahi Mahi. Outstanding Champagne. 100% Chardonnay. Right after being poured, the mousse is somewhat coarse, but this settles nicely with even just a minute or two of air time. The wine shows fresh, with citrus, apple peel and doughy notes. Finish is solid, and the Champagne performed nearly identical on day two after having been corked and put back into the fridge. My only complaint is that it lacks a little in the complexity department. More of a straight-laced, open knit Champagne, but it plays to its strengths.
