Friday, January 17, 2014 - "Best of the Best" Tasting (Switzerland): Tasted blind, 0.75 bottle, double decanted 3hrs back into original bottle:
Clear ruby showing some signs of aging. Rich sweet nose of plums and ripe red berries, hints of herbs. Wine is very long, but at the same time still has plenty of dry tannins and quite a bit of acidity. The sweetness and elegance is here but will they last long enough until the tannins and acidity settles down? Lets wait and hope.
