we popped this for my husband's bday and had with our meal as we think it'd be an understatement to treat it like an aperitif wine. and we were right..deep gold/amber colour, still holding on to its bubbles, lovely nose with honey, toast, caramel and on the palate a bit sweet at first but quickly balanced by its acidity, long finish although not as long as some other great years. all in all a great wine but drink soon.

Lovely fresh fruit, lots of acidity and good character although feels much lighter than a cndp. Drank from magnum and that's probably why it's not quite ready yet. Will give another yr and try again

the only negative thing about this wine was the relatively short finish. otherwise it has all the characteristics of a mature wine that appeals to me: still lots of red fruit on the nose, earthy notes with mushroom and leather. wonderful balance, all the tannins well integrated. at its peak, drink sooner than later
