Robert Parker
Let’s start describing the 2008 Cristal technically first. It is a 60/40 blend of Pinot Noir and Chardonnay from 36 plots in seven grands crus: Verzy, Verzenay, Beaumont and Aÿ for the Pinot Noir and Mesnil, Avize and Cramant for the Chardonnay. Twenty-five percent of the wine was fermented in oak, and 16% underwent malolactic fermentation to moderate the fresh acidity of the 2008 vintage. The assemblage was bottled in May 2009. After 8.5 years on the second lees (longer than any Cristal before), the first release was disgorged in September 2017 with a relatively low dosage of 7.5 grams per liter.So, here is how it tastes as a “young” cuvée: The 2008 Cristal opens bright, super clear, fresh and pure on the exciting, absolutely fascinating nose with its fine, complex and elegant bouquet of gorgeously ripe and matured fruits, brioche and chalk expressions. This is the finest you can get from Champagne. The palate is pure, lean, fresh and filigreed but concentrated, highly complex, full of tension and enormously vibrant. This is a great vin de terroir, a dense and elegant Super-Cristal that goes straight and precise as a laser beam over the palate but also has texture in the form of sensually fleshy fruit. The dosage, however, is the lowest ever: just 7.5 grams. The endless and highly tensioned finish is complex, citrusy fresh, full of chalk and crystalline finesse. The 2008 Cristal is a vitalizing drug, “the Chevalier Montrachet of Champagne,” as Jean-Baptise Lécaillon puts it. It is the most exciting 2008 Champagne I have tasted thus far (May 2018).James Suckling 100 Point
Staggeringly concentrated, yet the balance makes it seem airy and light. This is an ultra precise Cristal, finishing with a mere suggestion of savoriness and warmth to come. -

Harlan Estate 1990
42.000,00 kr. Tilføj til kurvFØRSTE ÅRGANG NOGENSINDE FRA HARLAN ESTATE!
Harlan Estate er en af Napas mest fremtrædende vinproducenter. Vingården ligger i Oakville AVA, i bakkerne over Martha's Vineyard (Heitz Cellar) og To Kalon (Robert Mondavi), lige nord for selve Napa by. Deres Cabernet Sauvignon-baserede flagskib Harlan Estate er en af Californiens mest eftertragtede vine, der jævnligt har priser på over 1000 USD per flaske. Harlan blev grundlagt i 1984 af ejendomsudvikleren William Harlan, som havde købt Merryvale vingården og Meadowood lodge, før han købte 240 acres (97 hektar) jord i Oakville-bakkerne. Omkring 40 acres (16 ha) af dem blev ryddet til vinmarker - for det meste plantet til Cabernet Sauvignon, men med noget Merlot, Cabernet Franc og Petit Verdot. Harlan Estates første kommercielle årgang var 1990, som blev frigivet i 1996 med en pris på $65 per flaske den gang. Siden da har Harlan cementeret sig selv som en kultvinproducent, med 8 årgange, der har opnåede 100 point fra Robert Parker. Ud over flagskibet Harlan laver Harlan Estate også anden vinen, The Maiden.
