    March 1, 2024 - (100% Syrah, 13.5% Alkohol) Rubinrot, am Rand mit orangen Rändern. Die Nase ist super sortentypisch, viel weisser Pfeffer über einer dunklen Frucht, frisch anmutend, keinerlei Wärme, einfach nur wunderschönen Syrah-Duft. Im Gaumen auf den Punkt gereift, die kernigen Gerbstoffe kontern die delikate Frucht, top Säure, viel Rasse und Würze. Im Abgang harmonisch, langanhaltend und mit kräuterwürzigen Rückaromen. Ein Syrah-Gedicht! Jetzt bis 2035.

    December 14, 2023 - Ruby red in colour. Dark berry scents, as well as violet, iron and spice. Deep, tight, concentrated and fresh, not a trace of age. Likely an exceptional Bordeaux and probably the best Northern Rhône red I have ever enjoyed.

    September 10, 2023 - Nice bottle. Much better on day 2. Still felt like a lot of oak on day one.

    November 26, 2022 - A cosy evening with family: At first a bit jammy, but it dissipated quickly. Superb wine really with some Burgundian accents (a guest noted it reminded him of a Vosne-Romanée).
    Good to drink now, but I am sure it will develop nicely with time. Next bottle in five years if I can wait that long.
