TASTING NOTE: This is a nicely youthful Champagne for eight years, still showing lemon colour and a lifted nose of lemon, honey nougat, light toast and brioche. It's light to medium-bodied, firm, mouth-watering and very bright on the palate. The length is excellent. Brighter and more energetic than I recall from Moet. Quite charming and energetic at the same time. Score - 92 (David Lawrason, winealign.com, Oct. 19, 2016) Price $ 92.95
Bottle Size 750 mL
