3 months ago I had a fantastic H-M from outstanding 1995 vintage. 2015 is also outstanding vintage, but of course the wine is much younger. Smell - a lot of oak, not enough B+R fruits ( not a good start). What else? Leather and earth. Well, let's see the taste. And the winner is...the taste! Fantastic mixture of black coffee, black chocolate, plum, cocoa, even strawberry ( what the hell 🙂), oak is here too, but everything is 'covered' with a milky texture. 8 years old wine with vivid, but nice acidity and tannins. Long finish with cocoa, spice, red cherry, grippy tannins CS - 50% M - 40% PV- 5% CF - 5%

Bjørnebær, blåbær, fat, tobakk, pepper og kaffe. Medium syrlig frukt, god fylde og fortsatt litt skarpe taniner. Balanserte godt med okse og bernaisesaus, og myknet opp litt i taninstrukturen etter ett par timer i glasset. Helt i starten av drikkevindu.

vin sans éclat, ni même arôme distinctif.

Last minute carafing. Nice nose: black fruits, cedar. Good acidity and tannins starting to soften but somewhat muted. Âge ingrat, already?
