Nice wine. Good fruit taste of raspberry, slight strawberry and other red berries. The acid level is good at a high level, which make it food friedly. Liked it.

Tested with a small sample before serving, this wine showed plenty of somewhat austere tannins and hard acidic taste, but lots of fruit. Decanted for four (4) hours. The bouquet is phenomenal with dark berries (blackberries) jumping up from the glas. Tasting shows wonderfull soft tannins, fine balancing acid and more of the dark berries. Great taste and complexity. Long sweet aftertaste make this wine a wonderfull experience. This wine still has good potential for a longer life.

Colour is dark impenetrable purple.
Super smooth wine. On the nose a lovely smell of dark berries, black currants and black erries and a touch of wood - a smooth bouquet!
Taste is like the smell and it has fine smooth tannins. The acid is present but good and smooth. A sweet fruit is present with the black currants, black berries, dark plums and a cigar case/cedar wood being the dominant flavours combinex with a slightly smooky aftertaste. The taste last long. Great balance! Tannins cote my mouth and leave me with a dry sensation in my mouth, but the tannins are well integrated.
It would have had more years to go if I hadn’t opened my last bottle. My guess is it could last 5-10 years in the cellar before it will decline.
Overall a super delicius smooth Wine that is wonderfull now, and will be excellent the next 5-10 years.

Great wine. Compelling intoxicating smell with lots of red berries. Taste follows with smooth velvety tannins and acid level to match. Very good integration of all components. This is even better than I remember it. At its prime drinking window right now.

Delicious wine. Fine colour, hasn’t lost the youthfull deep dark red hue. Smooth with good acid and still has powerfull chewy tannins that has mellowed perfectly with age. Aromas of leather, wood, smoke, dark berries and a hint of mocca. Aftertaste with a slight acidic bite and a miniscule amount of bitterness. A slight mouth warming sensation reveal the heat of high alcohol content, but that goes well to cleanse the mouth of the fat on a good steak. No decant is necessary at this time of it’s life. It has probably reached past the middle of it optimum drinking window, but still has a couple of good years left.

Colour: Dark almost impenetrable violet. Bouquet of black berries, black currants and cedar tree. Taste of Dark berries, black berries, black currants, smoke, sour dark cherries. Quite high acid and tannins, but smooth tannins and complex taste. Aftertaste has good length and tannins coat my mouth and teeth. It’s a powerful wine even after ten years and I think it has potential for at several years (5-15?) of further cellaring.This is a very good wine that would go well with a good steak or a beef stew.

Smell of gooseberry and lime. Taste of gooseberry, lime and grapefruit, with the slightly bitter sting. Acid is medium. Good long aftertaste. A very good wine. This wine show that some overseas sauvignon blanc can have a longer life than you might think. Kept in a wine fridge since I bought it years ago.
