At just past 40 years of age, this bottle of the original disgorgement of the 1979 vintage is holding up very well. 1979 was a spectacular vintage in Champagne; a cool spring delayed the season somewhat, but warm conditions throughout ripened fruit exceptionally well, and the harvest occurred in early September. Today the wine is maturing, with notes of toasted walnut, ground coffee and truffle, yet the texture on the palate is exceptionally fresh, and the wine carries on straight through to a confident finish. There is still some time left here – a true delight.
