March 28, 2024 - Søt duft med pære. Fersk og fruktig på smak. Avlsutter med en grusom bitterhet som gjør den nær udrikkelig.

October 20, 2023 - Medium minus intensity aromas of citrus, bread yeast, slight biscuit. Crisp mousse, lemon, bread yeast, textured burr is pleasing but this finishes a little sour and bitter. Meh.

June 12, 2023 - 79% Chardonnay, 20% Pinot Noir and 1% Pinot Blanc. 29% aged in barrels, 71 in stainless steel, dosage 5 g/l, no idea how long it aged in the bottle, 12.5% vol.
Restaurant in Brescia. Very small sustainable bubbles. Lemon zest and a hint of yeasty notes, mineral, pure and very dry with good freshness, medium+ length.
Very good in the style of a classic Champagne. I think this bottle would profit from a few more years in the bottle and would get a creamy mouthfeel and more complexity, as the structure is very promising, 90-91+. -

June 11, 2023 - Frisk, konsentrert, lang smak, en smule bitter i avslutningen. God fruktsødme, modne gule epler, hint av bakst/kjeks. Rund, varm og små bobler.
Skal kjøpes igjen!
