Lunch at Derby Restaurant.
Franck Bonville Brut Prestige - both acidity and ripeness on the palate. Not too acidic for a blanc de blancs.
2010 Jean Foillard Morgon Cuvée 3.14 - unfiltered and cloudy. Nice acidity on the palate, with toasty corn, sweet fruit, animal, and leather notes. A wine that is drinking beautifully now.
1997 Viader - decanted 1 hour prior to serving. First whiff showed black olives and stewed prunes. Later with vanilla, forest, and meaty notes. Mature now and somewhat disappointing.
