Toller Bordeaux. Sehr schöne Nase. Dunkle Früchte, Gewürze, ein wenig Terroir-Aromen. Auch nach 2 Tagen im Kühlschrank noch ganz wunderbar. Auf dem Höhepunkt. Noch sicher 2-3 Jahre und toller Verfassung. Hatte bereits 2004 oder 2003 eine Flasche dieses Weines in Erlangen probiert. Damals auch um 90 Punkte.

Cork in better condition than the 3 previous bottles, with staining only about 1/5th up from the bottom. As with the previous bottles, this needed a few hours of slow-ox'ing to smooth out the oak tannins. All 4 bottles I had were consistent. Nice aged Bordeaux, definitely lots of oak influence that's now integrated. Not a favorite style of mine, but enjoyable for what it is. Pretty good weight and plenty of fruit left. This will probably last for a while longer with no decline.

In half bottle, probably a bit past it, but still offering some nice earthy, mushroom notes and a lingering finish.

Deutliche Brett Noten. Mir zu ausgeprägt. Ansonsten ein schöner Bordeaux auf dem Höhepunkt.

I agree with PINTAG notes from Feb 27th. Will definitely hold my remaining bottles for a few more years before trying again.
Better the second day.
