Lunchtime fizz: Philipponnat non dose

Champagne Philipponnat Royale Reserve Non Dose
From the 2005 vintage, with no dosage added. Deep yellow/gold colour. Taut, warm, toasty and herby, with a lovely savoury, fruity quality and good acidity. This avoids being at all harsh, with a honeyed, toasty richness and a dry palate. Nicely complex. 91/100 (UK agent Les Caves de Pyrene)

Jamie - you are a lucky chap - you drink a lot of fabulous wine and eat a lot of very, very fine food. How do you remain so slim - do you go to a gym?
This champagne is just incredible. I'm surprised it doesn't have a higher profile.
