  Still young, bubbly with citrus and some green apple in the mouth, but the finish is a gloriously long wave of vanilla fudge, really beautiful. Delicious now and I imagine has quite some improvement to come.

  Tightened since three years ago, very concentated with citrus galore. Layered with both minerals and hints of brioche, but seems to be closing down - several bottles served and tasted - same impression.

  My score reflects the wine's potential. Drinking like a 93 today. Very young, fresh, restrained bubbles, mineral (almost chalk) flavors. Apple and pear. Needs time. Check back in 5 years. This will be a great wine one day.

  Torsdagsklubben: Fransk boksmat: Moden, svakt nøtteaktig og med noe kamfer, mektig vin. Overraskende langtkommen.

  Kräftiges Gelb, dezente, feine Perlage. Die Nase ist steinig, mineralisch, dahinter mehliger Apfel, Brotrinde, Walnuss, auch zitrische Noten. Im Gaumen reichhaltig, opulent, ein Mund voll Wein, viel Druck, top strukturiert, balanciert, finessenreich und sehr lang im Abgang... Ziemlich grosses Champagner-Kino.
