Still young wine. I drunk 2009 few weeks ago and 2010 is less balanced and not really ready to drink (if you expect something special). 3-4 years more and lets see. I prefer more 2009, but 2010 can still surprise. Dark fruit, tabacco and cedar. Still powerfull tanins at the end.

After 1,5 hour nice balanced, open, cherry notes, sweeter not rough tannins, dark plum with middle finish. Quite impressive nose showing a power. It is ready to drink and might last for another 10 years. Next bottle not earlier then 3 years.

It took around 1hour to open and to show the pontential. At the beginning is nothing special, but after that it is nice a balanced wine, Dark red color, black fruit, licorice with touch of vanilla. There are still some fine tannins for more years with very long finish. After 4 days the wines showed still good shape.
