I met a friend for dinner last night at a local bistro. Food was quite good and he brought along a bottle of 2002 Dom. Leflaive. I bought a bottle of NV Pierre Peters Cuvee Reserve Champagne off the wine list that was quite good. A bit fruity but plenty of buttery brioche aromas and flavors with a nice green apple note. The Leflaive was quite smokey with the sulferous matchstick note that never really left the wine even after decanting for an hour. While there was no premox isue the sulfer was a bit offputting and I really didn't enjoy the wine.
