  Powerful with elegance. Dark fruit, tobacco, earthiness, good freshness. Long finish. Superb wine.

  Dégustation GEEU chez nous (Mouline, Redigaffi, Rousseau...) (Bernex): Bouteille en parfaite condition mais bouchon très friable. Into neck. Grenat mat et foncé. Nez proche d'un Bordeaux avec des arômes de bois noble, de havane, puis de sous-bois. La comparaison s'arrête là car, en bouche, le vin offre un profil sur la chaleur, une extraction poussée, une certaine mollesse. C'est assez agréable à boire mais fatigant. À boire.

  Excellent wine... Good nose upon opening but needed about an hour in decanter to open up taste. Then still strong dark fruit, bordeaux like tobacco, still good acidity, well age polished tannins. Nice.

  Some Spanish Wines on a Saturday afternoon (Some very old ones) (CB): Bought on release, I have always found these quite over oaked. At 14 years from vintage, much of the oak has integrated, not all, and there is still plenty of fruit. Dark cherries, cigar, slight bell pepper. Getting to be more Bordeaux-like IMO. Very smooth and complex. Layers of cherries, dark cherries, earthy with some damp forest floor notes. Nice balance. No hurry on this, but getting near peak.

  The nose showed black currant, sweet spices, animal musk and a slight medicinal cherry. On the palate it was ripe and silky with mixed berry, cedar and autumnal spices. A tug of tannin and acid led to a clean, fresh finish with tart, dark red fruit.
