  bigger and texturally driven. not oak flavored, but oake textured with oxidation giving it life now but maybe not for long term ageing. ready to go!

  Three years since the last bottle, and still a 'big' Champagne. Really lactic on opening, then increasingly taut and malic, though the creme pat and brioche vibe did persist (thankfully - it was delicious). A lovely wine.

  Rich nose of tarte tatin. The palate is concentrated and supported with enough acidity to frame it. Ripe green apples, pastry and flowers.

  Such a full and expressive nose with notes of lemon, grapefruit, apple, acacia, brioche, and honey snap biscuit. There is something herbal, fennel? anis vert? It is dry with terrific acidity, entirely in balance. The primary fruit flavours balance beautifully with the lovely lees notes, like apple danish! This is outstanding - so much complexity and flavour intensity, and a finish that goes on and on.

  Lite för kall i första glaset men tod sig väldigt bra med lite tid och temperatur. Pigga bubblor och mycket smak av fräscha äpplen.
