Community Tasting Note

  • Sundbyberg wrote: 92 points

    February 6, 2014 - Pnp. My third time drinking this vintage.
    More mature than the 2002 and seems to be ready for drinking. Probably not for the long term. Brioche and nuttiness, that may show better with some more bottle age. Reminds me of Krug, but does not have quite the same complexity and elegance. 92+.

    2/6/14, 4:14 PM - May I also ask for the disgorgement date? There seems to be a disparity between notes as to whether or not this one is ready to drink.

    I did not drink the 2002 and the 2004 at the same time, but they have been very different. While the 2002 obviously had a lot in store, the 2004 seemed quite open.
    Also, I have now tried the 2004 three times, so I base my judgement on that.
    No discorgement day. Drank them in a bar that sells them for 20 usd by the glass.
