The Other 2004

To close out the bank holiday weekend, my husband and I opened one of the other bottles of 2004 champagne that I received as part of my allocation of champagne from Maison Lenique through 3-D Wines. This one was a vintage 2004 - made from the very best grapes that year.

For a change, we didn't serve food with this champagne, we simply popped the cork and sipped it as we relaxed into the end of the evening. It had many of the characteristics of the 2003 from Maison Lenique that we've been drinking - green apple on the nose, and lots of clean, fruity flavour. I'm impressed with this maker, as his wines are completely in-line with the style of champagne that I really like.
