  Medium ruby red colour. Medium (+) nose with black plum, forest floor, earth and mushrooms. Medium taste of red plum, black plum, forest floor and mushrooms. Medium long and dry finish. Medium acidity. Medium (+) tannins. Medium body. A good Bordeaux rouge that lacks some complexity. Drink now or over the next couple of years. Goes well with beef or lamb.

  What on earth would make you use this much new oak? This smells like the bottom of a bonfire. Honestly, avoid

  Enjoyed over two days. I felt it was better on the second day and the tannins had time to smooth out.

  Nase: Rote sehr süsse (Beeren-)Früchte (eingelegt): Erdbeeren (Himbeere?) und eingelegte Pflaumen (?). --> nicht subtil Etwas Lakritz, rel. dominante Vanille.
  Gaumen: weniger rote Früchte als erwartet, hohe Säure und eher unangenehme Tannin (noch etwas kalt). - wärmer: immer noch sauer, tannine uneingebunden, balsamisch am gaumen.
  83
  nächster Tag ein bisschen besser, mehr Körper, frucht weniger penetrant: 85
