93 Points

Saturday, October 17, 2015 - Regular dinner group (@ PZ): In the bouquet coffee, mocha, tea, smoke and beautiful oak. On the palate a beautiful and mature wine. Still juicy. Coffee, chocolate, sweet spices, beautiful oak, earth, mushrooms and autumn flavors. Still very good and pleasant acidity and soft tannin. This is a fully mature and extremely beautiful bottle. The wine will not improve anymore, but becoming at this age and being still so beautiful, if you have a well stored bottle it will probably still be nice around 2020 or even an bit later. But until 2040 as the drinking window in CT indicates now is imho quite ridiculous.
