Love this style of wine. Nose jumps out at you with bright cherry fruit, spice, loads of minerals and lovely forest floor. Ripe and lurid. Soupy in the best way. Really airy, high toned and just so aromatic. Very impressed. Palate is sweet and succulent with very impressive tang and length. A haunting opulent and terrific texture adds to the allure. Fresh and juicy with terrific energy and purity. Long with superb powdery tannins. — 5 years ago

Prior notes still apply, wonderful bottle!
Nose is lightly briney, fresh sage and peppercorn, cold yellow apple.
Palate has chalky red fruits, abundant red & yellow cherry, great acid and even better mineral texture.
I've found the Brice NV bottles all need a decant, yes decant Champagne, seriously. These bubbles are over the top, and only an extensive airing will bring you full enjoyment. The vintage bottles are good to go from the bottle, more restrained effervescence there. This was decanted for about 60m, but I did have the decanter in the refrigerator, I still have respect for service temperature. — 7 years ago

Very oaky nose along with pretty black cherry, licorice, spice and menthol. Aromatic big man that wood. Palate is dense and sweet with nice balance and texture. Good 2012 volume and amplitude. Compact. Nice mineral finish. Give it 3-5 years for oak to integrate on nose. It has on palate which is nice now. — 7 years ago

Deep purple color. Aromas of black cherries, violets and oak. Black fruit on the palate, plum and silky tannins. Great wine for under $40.
