This is super fresh but ready to go. Bright lifted lemon and limestone fruit. Super bright and intense and detailed in the palate. Really vivid and dynamic. Still young. Really good.

In such a killer spot. Wow. One of the all time greats, 1996 is explosive tonight, wafting from the glass with stunning aromatics of honeycomb, dried orchard fruits, roasted nuts and drizzles of caramel. The palate is expansive, textural, incredibly deep and sensual with brilliant density. There is such an incredible combination of freshness and secondary character of an aged Champagne, and its racy citrusy acids bring it all home. I have to believe there can be some bottle variation, but this one, absolutely perfect. Amazing wine.

The '96 is still harder and coarser than I would like.

Very intense and bright. Tightly coiled with crystal clear detailed acid and a beautiful powerful middle. Incredible fruit and minerality bunched like a fist. Goes on for ages. The last few bottles I've tried have been advanced- this is a baby with huge promise. Go figure
