90 Points
Monday, October 14, 2013 - Small grower Champagne tasting with Munskänkarna, featuring some of the new generation of growers (Stockholm): Light yellow colour. Nose with ripe yellow apples, noticeable oak notes, some perfume, elegant. Medium bodied+, palate with yellow and green apple, some peach, high acidity and mineral. Young, should be allowed to develop, 90+ p.
This wine will climb to a high level! What keeps my "now score" somewhat down, although I found this wine to clearly be the best of the flight, is that the oak notes are rather obvious at present. In an top vintage such as this one, the oak will integrate well with some cellaring.
