Absolutely gorgeous golden hue in the glass. Truffle and some mushroom elements on the nose. Quite mature and tertiary right now - in its peak drinking window. Layered and lemony but baked lemon pie with orange zest, high acidity and tiny bubbles. This has plenty of energy for its age with brightness as well as complexity. Ultra refined and delightful. Such a treat to taste such a wine at this point. Juicy, lively, racy, bitter and a touch truffley. Just divine. The first full vintage by Charles Philipponnat who had just arrived at the House to take the general manager position. Dosage 4.5g/L.  Tasted twice.
