Description: Consists of 1 Bottle, 0.75L
Region: France, Champagne.
Score: 96 RJ.
"David Peppercorn and Serena Sutcliffe graciously treated me to this mammoth wine as an aperitif in their beautiful London home. After a brilliant and sophisticatedly elegant '81 from the same house, our senses were numbed by this bombshell. There is so much incredible taste packed into each gulp that you are dumbfounded. But I must point out that purity, elegance, and polish are somewhat lacking. Still, many consider this to be the foremost Champagne they've ever tasted." Richard Juhlin, ChampagneClub.com, Jun 2011
Lot Location: Orange County
Estimate: $1,700
