Pato rocks, have a sparkler here ready to go too! Happy New Year.

Jashue wrote:What I did find, however, was a bottle that I have no memory of ever purchasing. In fact, I've never even heard of the producer in question, "Jacquesson". The bottle I have is Cuvee No 731. Tanzer gave it a 91, I see. The Spectator gave it an 88. There is no review from Parker. I'm curious to know if anyone here has any familiarity with this wine.
... This is a much cooler surprise!

By afternoon, a NV Loire bubble seemed more in line with my tasting faculties, and by the time it was time to open a bottle I had already gone to bed with nothing more than a glass of water. I don't know who gave me this cold, but somebody owes me!

Played euchre and enjoyed a very dry Prosecco (too dry for my tastes) to ring in the New Year. I had brought a NV Lucien Albrecht Brut Rose as our sparkler but did not open it.

And I agree on the Jacquesson.. It rarely disappoints, is reasonably priced (for a Champagne....) but I also don't see it as often as I'd like. So, I drink Duval-Leroy.
