Seriously precocious nose with notes of apple blossom, fresh strawberries, clotted cream, cashews and lightly toasted hazelnuts plus a barely detectable hint of oak. Great concentration of apple crumble flavours with very fine bubbles and a crisp backbone of acid. Long creamy finish. Drink 2010 to 2029. Tasted March 2009. - Lisa Perrotti-Brown
The 22 Cristal is just now beginning to enter a plateau of early maturity. The ripeness and exuberance is on full display, but the 22 needs quite a bit of air to fully open up and show its personality. Today, the 22 is racy and intense to the core, with fabulous balance and plenty of the vintage's trademark opulence. What a gorgeous Champagne this is. 1, cases imported in the US.- Antonio Galloni (5/214)
