June 19, 2020 - From voluminous burg cup. Stunning color, nearly ageless. Met in good condition, more on the nose this time with ethereal touch, finishing brightly on delicate red and orange fruits. Rated one point higher, drink now.

April 3, 2017 - Color: dark ruby-purple. Nose: mature notes. Taste: at first some disjoint acidity was prominent. After a while in the glass some mature notes came up. Fruit was not a prominent feature. There were some really attractive mature notes, but after all it lacked concentration and balance. At the second day sweet fruit in the nose, menthol and licorice and some dark fruit in the taste. Still a bit hard and lacking back-palate, but quite attractive, more than at the first day. First day 85, second (86-)87.

October 22, 2015 - Finally this is ready to drink, best bottle by far. Nose seems to be muted but well perfumed, tasting very delicate for bourgeois level. 87+
