August 8, 2011 - - Yellow gold color and aromas of melon. It's somewhat balanced and has flavours of moldy and diesel with a medium body. Smooth texture with a medium finish - Tydelig moden, petroleumsaromaer, men fortsatt god frukt.

August 10, 2010 - Lidt dvask og brunlig i aromaerne, men blev også drukket af et dårligt glas. God champagne, men her i en blot hæderlig udgave. Hvis jeg havde flere, ville jeg drikke dem snarest.
