Medium, light ruby with tawny shift, light funky nose. Moderately dry, tart, bitter. Way over the hill, better for the crock pot.

Fruit was vrijwel verdwenen,toch nog lekker, grafiet, leer
was good surprisingly since it was 12 yrs old...
Thin. Very thin. Suitable for use in cooking, though, so it's in the fridge awaiting use in a stew.
easter 2008, moue chewed foil
Needs quite a bit of time in the decanter. At least 2 hours.
Better after 2 hours
Good but expensive generic claret, good typicity, some juicy 1999-fruit, pleasant autumnal touch of maturity. Drink up.
Ruby red with earth and barnyard notes on the nose. Cherry starts to emerge after some time in the glass. Good legs. A little vegetal on the front of the mouth, but still nice fruit.
Really thin and not attractive. But considering the price, 80 should be okay for the score.
