This was apparently posted on the LCBO website on September 2, 2014 at $481.95 this original February 9, 2024 e-commerce-on-line-only-order is still available. Tasted on December 31st with 5 other freshly-opened, chillled Champagnes at Royal York and Bloor West store. Bright very light yellow colour. Initially very complex and intense on the nose with some extremely leesy, peppery-tinged, buttered toast, lemon-apple meringue fruit all of which improved with breathing. Very dry, medium-full bodied, initially somewhat acidic, intense, mature, lemon-apple meringue flavours with a lingering, well structured, sourdough, faintly bitter, lime-leaf-tinged finish. This blend of 95% Chardonnay and 5% Pinot Noir can be seen here - https://www.lcbo.com/en/duval-leroy-femme-de-champagne-brut-champagne-2000-670364 |

TASTING NOTE: 95% Chardonnay, 5% Pinot Noir. Lacy and fine on the palate. Elegant acidity drives freshness along with the pronounced citrus and stone fruits. Evolving nicely with more years ahead. Stunning! Score - 96. (Decanter World Wine Awards, 2021) |
