Champagne this time of year is a must but at this price you could drink this all year round. It seems that Champagne is getting cheaper. Is it that we are drinking more so they can buy bigger shipments or is it the price of our dollar? These bubbles of joy have complexity wedged with acidity and creaminess. On the palate there are flavours of lemon curd, sea salt, roasted nuts and spicy grapefruit that slowly unfold. Open on Christmas day!
