  Has lost its young fruit and showing more mature flavors. Still some lingering oak. Decent wine, but lacks a bit in terms of length and structure to get a higher score.

  Gift from a friend about 10 years ago. This is a very young tasting wine. Still mostly primary, but very tasty. Big fruity nose (black current), some leather and earth, with some light green. Taste was similar with big fruit (big not too big), tannins were still very present, and it had a tangy acidity and strong mint hit. Very nice wine and superb QPR. This has plenty, plenty of time left, good till 2040.

  Better than the one I drank last year. Maybe the additional year made all the difference or just a coincidence of food pairing and time to air. Chewy full body with oak and tannins And some ruby port at the end.

  Could not find the notes of port in this bottle I was expecting. A bit bland, but not undrinkable. Some hints of cellar and oak. Had it for almost three years and saw very little development from first tasting.

  Potent, full of fruit, but a triffle rough at the edges - you know you are drinking this.
