Rare Champagne from a different era, and it takes you to a different world. It's intense still, yet the mousse is very soft. Roast and caramelised nuts are at the fore, yet there's still plenty of fruit here, albeit in the form of dried mango, golden raisins and roasted yellow plums. Coffee beans and candied ginger emerge, a little vegetal note too, and it's laced throughout with a peaty smoky depth, with sweet rum and salted almonds on the finish. Quite a remarkable spectrum of flavour and colour which really backs up the argument for ageing your Champagne as long as you can.
