Seven Vintages, 95, 96 and 82 the better ones, but not one really good champagne. Soulless, uninteresting taste for the mainstream, like Dom, Moet, Veuve.... The sparkle was out of the champagne in the glass after 10 minutes. Terrible. Then we opened a bottle of Diebolt Collection 1997 - nice one!Torbenhttp://www.trinklaune.denoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5367424679032651122.post-72517870264647418952010-05-17T21:41:25.514+02:002010-05-17T21:41:25.514+02:00Hi Willy,

The 2000 Cristal is however overly sweet – I am confident you will hate it. The 1996 don’t feel that sweet – but it’s been a while since I have tasted it.<br /><br />Best from,<br />ThomasThomashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02092972086667650035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5367424679032651122.post-33152793604685464802010-05-17T16:24:46.305+02:002010-05-17T16:24:46.305+02:00Oh,

I was introduced to grower champagnes late last year and was hooked ever since (Leclapart L'Artiste 04 being the first that blew my mind). I totally agree with this. I also have friends complaning afer tasting Dom Perignon and Cristal recently. Looking forward for your next blog.<br /><br />Best Regards,<br /><br />Willy SutopoUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17472286216968663451noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5367424679032651122.post-1166498334038802482010-05-17T13:02:35.230+02:002010-05-17T13:02:35.230+02:00I have those names also, Ebbe – plus some other st...I have those names also, Ebbe – plus some other stuff also.<br /><br />I will have to do some testing in near future.<br /><br />Best from,<br />ThomasThomashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02092972086667650035noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5367424679032651122.post-6791088579183688632010-05-17T11:20:59.154+02:002010-05-17T11:20:59.154+02:00I totally agree, but I only had one bottle ;-)
