3.8 / 5.0750 ml@101 Bar

Tasted by accident. Anton Tlustyy shared it during Ulysse Collin dinner in 101 Bar.

It is interesting experience to taste 57 years old Champagne. Is it dead? Bubbles are gone for sure, it is over the peak, but still alive and has some good acidity left. Opulent oxidative nose reminding me of Madeira but with more cherry profile.
