  Lemony yellow. Pleasant, if short lived bubbles. Hint of bitterness, maybe some grapefruit rind at the front which quickly resolves into smooth, satisfyingly long citrus finish.
  Super value.

  Toasty, brioche, yellow orchard fruits (apple, plum, pear), floral, and a little flint. Creamy texture. Mouse is soft. Drinks a touch sweeter than it is, possibly due to MLF, but very nice. Pale/medium lemon. Full MLF, 24-months on lees, no oak, 7g/L, reductive. 25% reserve wines of 1-3 years old. 45% PN, 15% PM, 40% Chardonnay. -Mostly from WSG Champagne class with Essi Avellan.

  In Den Doofpot (Leiden, NL): Lovely easy going and very drinkable. Some brioche, ripe apple, good acidity and decent length

  Gourmetklubbens femtiosjunde middag hemma hos P+H: Tema Italienskt (P+H, Södermalm): (Disgorged in 2007, base year 2003, 60% Pinot Noir and 40% Chardonnay, dosage 10 gr/l)
  Lovely golden yellow colour with a very pleasant nose showing ripe apples, oily lemon zest and some herbs in a very pleasant way. Smoothing candied lemons acidity on the maturing palate with a creamy mid before the pleaaant hint of tarragon licorice on the delicious finish. This was still very youthful and should reward further improvement in the cellar for another decade!
  (Still very youthful with 15 years in the cellar)
