Firstly, this tasting was from a Jeroboam so the taste will most likely been superior to standard size. Medium gold colour and fine and persistent bubbles. Typical vintage notes of brioche, toast, bruised apples, brioche with slight oak notes. Certainly deserves a five star ratting for both taste and experience of the wine maker pouring from a Jeroboam! Golden fruits, citrus, baked apple pie, honey, toast... Quite a magical taste experience and right up my street!
