Lighter ruby color, bricking towards the rim, fully mature, but still alive with beautiful freshness, notes of violets, tar, some cedar wood, orange zest, also some leather notes, dried fruits, also some mushrooms. Medium+ bodied, with high acidity and medium-high tannin that is a touch rough by today‘s standards. Good finish. This showed more oxidative over the course of the tasting. I would drink this soon.

I double decanted this about six hours ago. Really expansive on the palate - we’re having risotto for the next course, and this should be a good match.

Medium light garnet red, wide yellow edge, 4,5
Mature uninspiring bouquet
Surprisingly fruity, h+T, hA, m+B, dry, sappy, vinous finish.
Wait ten years!

On opening, a musty note on the nose that will hopefully blow off. Sweet & sour cherry fruit on the palate, with good acidity. Will revisit with food.

Drunk in good company and without enough attention, but was wonderful. Tannins perfectly well integrated, harmonious and with wonderful complexity.
