Anthony Rose: (magnum, disgorged 1988) Containing some reserve wine even though it’s a Vintage Champagne. Deep yellow-gold; super-rich, smoky, nutty bouquet, with gentle truffley undertones, appetizingly toasty, honeyed, rich, full fruit intensity, with a delicious nectarine and ripe sweet apple fruit quality, underpinned by a subtle nose full of nutty notes and a seamless, linear steely blade of minerally acidity.
