Score 18/20 · Drink 1995-2020, Jancis Robinson MW, Jan 2018

Rich, dark and intensely mushroomy. This style of champagne is one you love or loathe – it is so defiantly mature. Some of our 1950s group found it too much. I agree it is too much to sip as an aperitif but I think it could inspired some wonderful food matches: chicken with morels and a creamy sauce perhaps? Certainly not a thirst-quencher... (JR)

Dark brownish gold. Tiny, slightly sluggish bead. Lightly mushroomy nose that is so characteristic of Bollinger. Deep umami savoury flavours. Still tight and youthful. High acidity with came to the fore in the glass but a great glass of wine with real potential still. (JR)
