Served maybe a fee degrees too chilled (8-9 degrees). Very high in acidity and non-revealing and tight on the nose and pallet. Opened up after some air and also with some degrees higher temperature. Good champagne, but not too impressive - at least not this bottle.

Nice, elegant, fresh and balanced wine. Strawberries, raspberries , a bit of spiciness and floral tones. Fresh, balanced taste that sticks around for quite some time. Drinkable now, but could for sure be kept a few years.

Black berries, chocolate, coffee / mocca and sweet licorice on the nose. Concentrated, dark fruit and berries with soft tannins and elegant acidity on the palet. Maybe a bit too "berry-sweet" for my taste.

Don't hold on to it longer.

Kryddig doft med björnbär, hallon, pepprighet, något blommigt och lite parfymerat. Torrt och medelfylligt. Kryddig smak, lena fina integrerade tanniner, välbalanserat, sirligt och elegant.

Koncentrerad doft med tydliga mognadstoner som drar åt choklad och välitegrerad balanserad ek. Björnbär, svartavinbär, fräsch doft. Koncenterad smak med rostade nötter, frukt, silkeslena tanniner, mörka bär och en pigg friskhet. Peak-time enligt min mening!

A bit closed, despite decanting for 2h. Aromas of currant, lead pencil and dark fruit. Great, full bodied taste, but more oak in the taste than I remembered from last time two years ago.

Complex and well balanced on the nose, with concentrated dark berries, a gentle touch of oak and stable. Concentrated, ripe, well balanced taste with loads of dark berries and silky tannins. Impressive for this wine and another proof of a great vintage!

Pleasant nose with ripe berries, oak and some spice but I expected more complexity. Some bitterness and some strange acidity on the palate. Agree with a former review - not sure where that 93p in the Winespectator come from.

Decanted for 2 hours, but still a bit "closed". Blackberries, raspberries and well-balanced oak. Very pleasant! A bit lighter in the taste than expected. Well-balanced, supernice silky tannins with a gentle touch of oak.

Crisp and fresh, with citrus, a touch of oak and a little related scent. When compared to the 2007, the taste is similar but with higher acidity and not as concentrated. Needs a few more years in the cellar according to my taste.

Fantastic concentred nose with blackberries, lot of fruit, a well balansed toasty oak and som spies. Full bodied, higlhly concentrated test with great chewy tannins. It has a lot more potential, but personally I think it is great already and enjoy the firm structure of a younger wine.

Lots of ripe fruit, dark berries, oak and ripe cherries. Still some tannins giving it structure, but for my taste a bit over the top. Should have been consumed two or three years ago.
