While our sitting room was being finished, we had most of its furniture and artwork in the dining room which has meant that we've been eating off of our laps since the beginning of the year. But everything is back in the sitting room, so we were able to eat in the dining room again last night. A cause for celebration, worthy of our last bottle of Canard-Duchene 2004 Brut Millesime from Majestic.
We liked it just as much as we did the last time we drank it. It has a very yeasty nose, and a really pleasant apples-and-toast flavour. It stood up to the red Thai duck curry we had for dinner, and then was a pleasant sipper while we cleaned up the dishes and chilled out after dinner. Good flavour, good bubbles, a very nice champagne.
