2006 Chartogne-Taillet Champagne Les Barres - France, Champagne (2/12/2017)
I first had this wine about 5 years ago, and it was amazing then. It was phenomenal this weekend. We opened the bottle to serve with gougeres, and it was a fabulous match. Somehow we managed to save some for night two, and it was even better. It still has lots of ripe red fruit, and now also has deepened to a point where it has become more red wine than Champagne. Amazing stuff.
