Joseph Perrier 1990 (champagne)

What a champagne this is.

It's a real vintage find.

And at around £60-70 a bottle it's a steal for what it is.

Not your everyday quaffing champers for sure but as a special treat, Fine and Rare can secure a bottle easily, I am told.

I had it prior to the recent Calon Segur vertical 'tasting' I took part in during December.

Aged champagne is not an area I know much about but boy has Joseph Perrier 1990 aged well.

It's dry, I want to say nutty, not musty like a well ageing red but you can taste the age and see it in the darker colour.

Attempted descriptions aside, it's well worth sampling. Yum.
