[Tasting note]

기본급 샴페인

블라인드로 접했을 때는 향에서 화사함이 부족해서 BdB은 아니라 생각했으며, Vintage Champagne의 녹진하고 산화된 풍미도 없었다. 그렇다고 BdN의 탄탄한 구조감을 보이는 것도 아니라 NV 샴페인으로 예측하였다. 화사함이 부족하고 구조감이 있으면서 입에서 살짝 질감을 주는 것이 Noir가 더 많다는 것 까지는 접근했다. 일반적으로 와인 애호가들 사이에서 평이 안좋기로 유명한 모엣 & 샹동 임페리얼 브뤼... 블라인드로 마셔보니 꽤나 마실만한 샴페인이였다

Entry level simple champagne

When first meet this wine during this blind tasting session, I thought it wasn't BdB because of its lack of fragrance and flower, and there was no rich and oxidized flavor of Vintage Champagne. Also I didn't think that it was BdN because it has quiet a week structure than average BdN, and I guessed it was NV entry level champagne. It was not gorgeous enough, and it was structured and had some texture on the palate so I guessed that it is Noir based wine. And finally it was Moet & Chandon Imperial Brut. This wine is generally notorious among wine lovers. However, at the moment of truth,  it was quite a drinkable champagne.
