Another dinner @ Christiansholm (Klampenborg): Darkblue, tight, young with loads of blackberries here; it is very polished, very Gaja, just a little gemacht, very much a First Class wine seeking to pleasure The Upper Ten ... #Schur

17th Annual Lyon 10 Year Retrospective (The Lyon's Tree House): Apparently my idiosyncratic distaste for Italian acids showed up when I tasted this blind, as I made a "face" that I was unaware of. There's black cherry, cassis, leather, and earth notes of medium depth. Same on day 2. Others liked it more.

A substantial wine that need time to open up. The nose is dark fruit and blackberry with interesting subtle earth tones. ON the palate it eventuial developed a powerful complexity. "What a shame" PDQ93
