Disgorged March, 2018 Base 2009
Jay Kline
2009 Base. Disgorged January 2018. Continuing on the rich and autolytic spectrum, this was stone fruit, brioche and lightly toasted marshmallow. That being said, it was noticeably drier than the Philipponat Royale Reserve that preceded it and seemed to have a slightly greater depth of character.

Base wine - 2011 vintage. Closed and rather linear, give it time and let it warm up. Brioche-baked sweet apple-spices accord. Lovely work. According to just-released statistics, more champagne was sold in Washington DC this weekend than over the past two years. We are in the other Washington but were happy to join in and our sigh of relief was certainly louder than the nun’s fart released on popping this.
