popped and poured.Wine has ruby color but gradually turning to garnet. The abundance of red fruits and balanced acidity are in the beginning made me to review again that the wine is 11 years old, still so young. Tannins are already smoothed out from the edges and holding the balance well, medium long finish. This wine can easily mature still for years ahead, no real signs of ageing.

Upon opening there was notable fizz, which promised good. Cork was probably original. Upon opening showing some impure aromas, which faded away once left to decant for a while. Wine has beautiful light straw color, nose leaned towards mature development, toasty and woolly premium scent with ripe citric fruits on the back, granny apples. The taste was telling the wine being on good drinking window, sip provided lovely mousse and taste was following the nose, toastiness, butterschotch, dried fruit, but very dominant acidoty kept wine in good structure. Concentrated and ripe acidity felt like sweetness on mid palate, made smile on my face. Very enjoyable at the moment. Will probably evolve favorably little longer.

Excellent and consistent Thivin. Still young but after second and third day, wine was very balanced and integrated. Will buy more...
