Difficult to judge this one. Delicious tertiary Pinot Noir aromas in the raspberry direction, and some wood. Light, tight and tart on the palate. Seems like there could be more to gain in the future, but the wine is now very restrained and lacks both generousity and the quality one should expect from an Amoureuses. There was almost no sediments, so maybe hard filtration is the problem. Then 2008 is not an easy and giving vintage either.

Dufter av pepperkaker, kirsebær og plomme. Frisk i munnen, god syre som er avrunda og fin, men totalt sett er vinen tynn og enkel for nivået. Ok lengde på ettersmaken, men den er relativt enkel, med plommer og syre.

Atlanta Amoureuses & Monty Dinner: This is good and has some nice elegant notes, but is a notch below the 08 Freddy.

Tasted blind. Very light color here, brown hue. Light but a bit diluted on the palate. The lovely tertiary aromatics are better than the mouth feel.

Blind. Licorice and strawberries, high acid, fresh --- but acid has taken over, unbalanced.
