1975 Ayala Champagne
Posted: 09:29 Mon 03 Feb 2014
My first experience of Champagne with real bottle age - and both I and EAB were impressed.
Deep yellow, very deep wine on the nose - surprisingly aromatic. Deep wine flavours on the palate, livened by a gentle mousse bringing lots of nuts and lemon acidity. Quite dry and bitter on the aftertaste, then a long and terrific finish. 88/100. Drunk 28-Dec-13 at this dinner.
