Color: You can see through the wine. Nose: Spices like Curry, soy sauce, bitter oranges, pomegranate. Mouth: Consistent with the nose. Chocolate, too. Expressive and it has some complexity, too. Medium bodied. You can feel the 14.5% a bit but not more than expected. Very good wine however it lacks the refinement to be in the excellent range. The attack is very good but in the finish it's a bit wishy-washy. The half full bottle after having spent one night in the fridge (under vacuum) has even more fallen apart. Hence 3 points less.

Defnitely too young however very enjoyable. Dark ruby. Intense, inviting nose with black cherries and some notes of violet. Velvety and rich with plum, cherries but also some fresh fruit adding acidity. A beautifully balanced wine, elegant already but should improve and round off the still present tannins in a couple of years. I will buy more and hide in the cellar.
