Another bottle from the great 2008 vintage in Champagne. Just love the vintage. This Grand Sendree has developed beautifully, with mature apples, pastry and all what I would expect. Nice and rounded mouthfeel. Can recommend.

The wine looks light gold colored. The legs are slow. There is no sediment in the bottle. It smells like honeysuckle, peach blossom, grapefruit, apple, mineral, stoniness, light toast and hay/straw. It tastes like stoniness, apple and grapefruit. The body is medium. The wine has smooth texture. The wine finishes short. The wine has medium acidity. Keeping surprisingly well at 10 years.
