On Magnum. Bought in 2005 from the Swedish State Wine Monopoly, Systembolaget. Degorged in 1998. Yellow colour. Still excellent mousse!!! Still very fruity as opposite of over-aged aromas on the nose. Taste is very alive & kicking, sweet fruit, cray, excellent balance, excellent mousse, long after-taste. A real surprise due to its still youthful appearance.I couldeasily have mistaken it for a very good producer vintage 12-15 years old, and still I´m in the habit of drinking "old" champagnes.
