It was like always a great experience! 2011 seems to be a tough vintage though but if there are some producers in Champagne who know how to handle it, its these guys!
The high flyers for me were:
- Agrapart (Mineral) - Leclapart (all were great except his rose seemed a little disjointed) - Tarlant (Vigne d'Or 2003 and BAM) - Bereche reflet d'Antan and Le Cran
