  Une bouteille avec des notes tertiaires assez présentes de fruits cuits et de champignon. Prune, figue, datte avec du cuir et un brin de sueur. Je ne suis pas amateur de ce style évolué et à mon goût ça aurait dû être bu il y a quelques années. Mais c'est peut-être seulement cette bouteille qui a mal (trop) vieillie?

  Insistent nose of tart cherries, medium body with good balance, silky smooth tannins and unmistakeable long finish.

  dark cherry. clear colour; excellent. nose: lot of cherries, bit raw; was decanted for 1h but still too closed. taste: very balanced and elegant; light bodied of medium acidity and soft tannins. Crispy cherries. Very classic, old school,elegant Classico. Would score it higher but the nose should show better.

  Earthy, floral aromas of black and red fruit, incense, and vanilla. Not as complex as previous vintages, this is mid-bodied and linear, yet possesses enough balance and backbone to unify the cherry and raspberry flavors with dried flower overtones. Pleasant finish.
