5/20/2023 - Jonne Likes this wine: 92 pointsRussin, alkohol, körsbärslikör, mörka bär och svart te i en mustig kompott. Som ett portvin light med tydliga körsbärstoner. Fylligt med väldans snälla tanniner. Avklingande syra men håller ändå balansen. Ett vin som klarar sig alldeles utmärkt på egen hand. |

Accompagnée de quelques sucres résiduels, elle tapisse complètement la bouche, c'est gourmand, hyper large, on sent un peu d'alcool quand même. Énorme si on apprécie le style. |

10/9/2021 - tcarter Likes this wine: 93 pointsStill good but definitely seemed to be at end of the line. Cork was perfectly intact. No signs of seepage or anything. Second bottle that seemed like it might be approaching end of life cycle. I would drink up. |

Palate transitioned into something more port-like but showed elegant balance even though the heavy alcohol made its presence. Not dead, but would not wait too long until next time |

6/21/2019 - wine4ever Likes this wine: 91 pointsStill delicious. Tons of fruit, a bit high on the octane level, but enough acidity to keep it in check. On the backside of it's drinking window, but it can still go a few years. No reason not to drink them if you have them. This was our last one, we enjoyed them all, wish we had more. |

Full body w lots of cherry fruit, very good acidity, integrated smooth tannins. Some alcohol. Balanced. Long aftertaste, quite nice, but no complexity: Time to drink up. Nice drinking, and good QPR. |

4/17/2018 - wine4ever Likes this wine: 91 pointsSimilar notes to last tasting, with some additional leather overtones now present in both the nose and palate. In a good spot and seems like it should continue to drink well to at least 2020. |

1/3/2018 - devraj Likes this wine: 92 pointsBrickish red in color. Overripe & smoky prunes, hint of varnish/acetone, leather on the nose. Dense and ripe on the palate with crushed raisins, dark chocolate, almond paste, low acidity and a long sweet and leather tinged finish. Better than a bottle from 6 years ago. |

11/29/2015 - cos65 Likes this wine: NRBarely a hint of garnet at the rim. Unlike the last several notes, I find this still incredibly fresh and fruit forward. Some typical raisiny and resiny flavors, but they were there on release. I think this has plenty of life left. But it's absolutely gorgeous and sweet right now. |

10/18/2015 - wine4ever Likes this wine: 91 pointsBest showing so far of this wine. Definite bricking on the edges. Medium weight. Sweet, nice rosey, pruny nose. Slight sweetness...raisin, fig, oak, baking spices. Well structured. Nice 20 second finish. I think this is in it's peak window. Can't imagine it will improve. Drink now - 2018.

7/25/2015 - Christoffer78 Likes this wine: 90 pointsTotally open for business, but certainly on its last verge of drinkability. Nicely balance between fruit and acidity. Tannins are totally integrated. Pleasant length on the finish. |
