  Brick red colour with a classic mature nose showing leather, saddle and cedar in a delicious way. Mature palate showing soft tannins and with a fresh fruity sweetness combined with a touch of liquorice on the finish.

  Brick red colour with a mature nose showing liquorice, herbs and cedar wood in a very pleasant and seductive way. Silky smooth tannins on the soft palate showing drying fruit and some herbal notes as well.
  This is still very fresh and accessible and my thoughts where more around mid-80s. Very good still.

  Brick red colour with mature notes of leather, stables, violet and fresh tarragon, mint and on the very expressive nose also showing some burnt notes. Smooth tannins and fruit drying up on the palate at first, but after a nice middle it opens up on the warm and lengthy finish showing a bit of sweet fruitiness and burnt character on the warm and lengthy finish.
  This shows a very evolved character, but still with enough energy to keep it all together, especially on the expressive nose and the nice finish. I’m not expecting this to change over the coming years.
