Perrier Jouët's Fleur de Champagne 1998. A pure delight, a mature Champagne at its peak. As light, delicate and fresh as on its release it is now showing a depth and complexity not obvious when young, along with appealing, subtle biscuity flavors.

…surprised to find that I enjoyed the Marsanne Roussanne blend from Saint-Peray ( Fleur de Roc 2009) more than the 100% Marsanne ... the Roussanne gave it lift and higher acidity.

All of them owned more wine than they, or any 100 of us, could drink in a lifetime. Even then, their pathology …
I also noticed that Pomerol was also the big winner with an incredible Fleur de Gay (18.5 out of 20 which was one of the wines that inspired Valandraud.
Meanwhile, demands for 2009 are coming in: following the notes from the Wine Spectator and betting taking place on those coming from the Wine Advocate.
