March 9, 2024 - Fresh, vibrant and energetic, there is a crispness to the red fruits that perfectly balances classy and classic. You also find ample notes of cigar wrapper, cedar, flowers and savory-edged, red currants in the nose and on the lifted, medium/full-bodied, crisp palate. The wine blends 84% Cabernet Sauvignon, 7% Merlot, and 3% Cabernet Franc. Drink from 2027-2060.

March 4, 2024 - UGCB Amsterdam, walkaround tasting so just short notes.: The wine is still quite locked, but there are dark berries, beautiful oak and cedar and sticky tannin. Classical wine that needs time. 93++

March 4, 2024 - UGCB tasting-Amsterdam 2021 Bordeaux 03-04-2024: There is quite a lot to taste in this wine, good fruit, than vanilla, than noticeable wood. The midtaste is really smooth and the aftertaste is firm with a bit harsh tannins. In my opinion the wine gives a bit pumped up impression and I think the vanilla and the wood causes it; on the other hand there is a lot to taste in this wine.
