This is a blindingly good wine. White pepper and roasted meats straight off the bat, with a rocky, stony minerality. The palate is utterly complete and a balanced blend of savouriness and compact, glossy dark and dried fruit. Well-knit tannins. A perfect match for beef gulasch with spaetzle. Ready but will improve.

I agree verbatim with my note from three years ago. Not evolving as quickly as I expected, and since I couldn't keep my hands off them this is my last bottle, so nothing else to look forward to for me. Great today after an hour of air and could still improve.

Very slightly corked, such a shame.

St Cosme Vertical (@Lasse): Lovely purity, depth and elegance. Raspberry fruit with a lovely acidity and plenty of complex green herbs.

A lot of sulphur out of the bottle but it blew off after an hour. Otherwise delicious.
