April 29, 2023 - Open in the bottle for a couple of hours; this seems to be past its prime. Nose has a very heavy quality: wet clay, dried cherries, blackberry liqueur, a hint of tobacco. Palate is similarly plodding: slight caramel notes with underripe red fruits, patent leather, short finish. Weird balance between acidity and tannins. Not my fave.

January 28, 2021 - Veldig skuffet over denne. Billig men moden Bordeaux med helt ok vurderinger innbyr til forventninger.
Det begynner bra. Mørk mursteinsrød med smal orange rand.
Aromatisk spennende. Bringebær og etterhvert nyper. Skinn eller pels. Fjøs og menthol. Alt i en søtlig ramme.
Dette er lovende.
Mørkere og syrligere uttrykk i munnen. Morkent tørt treværk. Litt snillt kan jeg si lakris men utgangen blir bare emmen og veldig tepose. Det er trøkk men ikke spesielt godt. Varer nesten desverre lenge.
Oppdatert 24t senere: Marginalt bedre i utgangen. Oppjustert 1p. -

December 26, 2019 - Perfectly acceptable claret. This maker has come a long way in 50 years. Still nothing to write home about, and the holding from the market until maturity is just a marketing gimmick.
