Still fresh and joyful if with smal hints of the alcohol, that marks the vintage. The superb winemaking rules here. Certainly no hurry to drink this, but the drinking window is wide open - not least if you like primary fruit.

Open and poured during cellar inventory: Entering maturity. Expressive nose with sweet Grenache galore, alcohol more restrained, good balance - and quite light with a mineral touch, yet the sweetness lingers. A food wine, really, grilled lamb chops, say ... #AB&Guillaume

This is coming around ever so slowly. Has the tell tale sweetness and hints of alcohol of 2011, but this is still quite young and primary, plenty of local feel, creamy, rich. Will keep 5+ years, probably gain some lightnes of being. Hands off for a couple of years. #Kandestederne

Rather heavy and alcoholic. A bit too much for me...
Will leave my last bottle for 3 to 5 years.
