1998 Vilmart Cuvee Creation

Just had this again. Oh wow.
The tropical fruit is still there, but it's starting to relax, and the new oak notes are turning from coconilla to lovely spice and nut notes. Concentrated, silky, and long, this is beautiful wine.

As a matter of comparison, I much preferred this to the NV Krug I had last month.
Then again, this might be my favorite bottle of champagne I've had. Wish I had more. Is there an emoticon for "sigh"?
