Dsg 2003. Beautiful dress with traces of evolution. Evanescent bubble. Nose on the mirabelle plum.
Winey and racy palate, on nuts and well-controlled oxidation. The juice is massive, powerful, structured and complex with integrated and elegant oak. The wine is harmonious and kaleidoscopic, on a magnificent balance giving length and energy to a delicious whole. Vinous finish, bringing together all the facets of the wine, between mirabelle plum and walnuts, over a length that I would have liked a little longer for it to be one of the greats.
It’s excellent!

Bt no. 00924, pnp, medium golden in color, fine but not abundant of beads rising from bottom of the glass. Nose of apple, pear and hint of toasted almonds. Refreshing acidity on palate with sufficient concentration, some salinity added to the complexity of the wine, apple citrus fruits showed up from mid palate. A bit expensive at this price level.

1995 Vintage Champagne horizontal (Medlar (London)): Starts out quite shy after a wonderful generous CSWCH. It is racy, a bit oxidative. But works and is one of those very interesting champagnes that you probably need more time and volume to assess. Also this concluded a wonderful line-up of blind champagnes.

Wonderful champagne and drinking really well. Fine mousse, very nutty nose with toast, palate that is lush yet not overweight, everything in great harmony, long finish. Need to find more of this!

Vi bestämmer oss för att ta in något som vi inte druckit förut. Har inte provat 1995. Det tar ett tag att hitta flaskan, ligger i en fin trälåda och korken kommer ut med en lätt fin plopp. Väldigt kall flaska men något orent skiner igenom i doften , tydligare i smaken. Med värme blir den lite unkna doften tydligare och tydligare. DEFEKT. Inget man blev glad av direkt

Some Champagnes and a few reds (Columbus, OH): Floral wine with darker fruits and a really intriguing Carribean spice component. Very agressive and raw in its youth, but more accessable flavors than expected. Lots of class and very exotic wine. Needs time.

Disgorged 2003. Medium gold. Tiny bubbles. Outstanding complexity and length, with nutty and yeasty aromas. Expansive on the palate. Just terrific.
