Still young, but opened nice up after 3 hours decant. A lot of fruit, some delicate sweetness in good contrast to the acidity, very good modern style barbera...

Pnp. Excellent nose with red berries and some tones of earthiness and spices. Very good balance between fruit and acidity, moderate sweet tannins, long finish. On the peak now, will hold for at least 2 more years.

still nice red fruit, good structure and balance with an acidity backbone. Best with food: Roast venison with Spätzle (swabian noodles) and lingonberries.

Purple colour, nice legs, intense nose with black berries, a bit spicy, mouth-watering. But on the palate somewhat disappointing: acid-dominated, unbalanced. Maybe better accompanying tasty food...
no significant change on the second day.

Definitely over the peak.
Too dominant acidity, hardly any fruit, inharmonious.

Still on the same level as last year. Ripe, but present fruit, maybe the oak is still better integrated and in the background.
Amazing with with a lamb curry with lemon grass, yams, green beans, tomatoes, carrots and basmati rice.

Complex perpetually changing nose, different spices and herbs, cherry, liquorice... Very round, ripe mouthfeeling with sweet tannins and well balanced acidity, again spices, black cherries and chocolate. Tight and multilayered, long finish.
At the top now.

2 Stunden vorher geöffnet, nicht karaffiert. Klassischer reifer Cabernet Sauvignon, Cassis-Noten, dunkle Beeren, vielschichtig, Leder und andere Tertiäre Aromen. Wunderbar eingebundene Tannine. Jetzt perfekt zu trinken. Hervorragend zu gegrilltem Presa vom Iberico Belota Schwein.

Not complex, but realy nice Napa-cab in the basic price-segment. Still a lot of fruit, present but not excessive vanilla-oak. Medium bodied, acceptable length.

Not decanted, drank over 2 days, even better on the second day.
Still dark ruby colour, fresh nose with layers of dark berries and cigar box. Round, present but well balanced acidity and smooth tannins, again dark berries / black currant, a bit spicy in the aftertaste...
Good now, will hold for some more time, but not get better

NV Jacquesson & Fils Champagne Cuvée No. 737 Dégorgement Tardif

3/25/2022 - tomasio-1 Likes this wine: 93 points

Ausgeprägte Hefenote, nussiges Brioche, leichte Zitrustöne, am Gaumen körperreich, cremig,hefig, wieder etwas Zitrus was ein schöne Frische verleiht, sehr trocken aber insgesamt sehr harmonisch und lang. Ein kräftiger Champagner, hervorragend als Essensbegleiter. Perfekt zu einer homemade Rinderfilet-Tartar-Torte mit Kaviar nach dem signature dish von Helmut Thieltges.

My first bottle of this champagne, had a difficult to describe note on the palate. Not THC, but an almost damp smell which not disappeared over the time. Think this was an off-bottle
