Gault&Millau's review
97/100
Superb 1990: limpid gold color, fine train of bubbles... as soon as you see this jeroboam, you know you're in for something exceptional. The nose is of rare complexity, with notes of roots, toasted sesame, roasted coffee, smoke and bacon rind. Then, with aeration, apricot, ripe yellow fruit and a hint of mushroom appear. On the palate, we find the same complexity, with an evanescent bubble, like a permanent bounce, and clear freshness. Ample, ripe, straightforward and taut at the same time, the wine lengthens to a long, divine gentian finish. A superb success! And the added benefit of the format is undoubtedly a real plus. To be enjoyed on its own as an aperitif, then as part of an entire meal with breaded veal sweetbreads with a dried root studding or grilled eel on a pomme de pain. Grandiose and available on request from the house.
