100 Points

Wednesday, November 16, 2016 - From Magnum, double decanted for 2 hours.

This was my dreamwine (beside Krug 1928). It was unbelievable. Perfect bottle. Very etherical at the beginning, mint, eucalyptus, tobacco leaves, so fresh, razorsharp acidity, subtle fruit of cassis, developing every half hour, after two hours in the glass you smell intensively black tea leaves, never ending finish. It can't be better. The best red wine I had so far. 101 points
