2/6, vg cork. Medium garnet core, pale garnet rim. Gently perfumed with ripe fruit, notes of meat, liquorice and furntiure polish. Touch of blood. Medium bodied, sweet red and plum fruit, soil, touch of meat, quite seductive with soft tannins, lovelty fresh acids, touch of liquorice on the lightly grippy finish. Excellent, continues to drink well.

Excellent wine, bordering on outstandig. It is truly outstanding for a village wine, but the Parker scale operates on absolute rather than relative measures. Very dark for a village wine that's eighteen years old. Like the previous bottles, there's furniture polish, some herbs (dried, I'd say, rather than fresh) and a dark undertow. Harmonious and smooth in the mouth, with decent length. Outstanding for the level, but excellent overall.

Translucent ruby. Nose of wildflowers, damp cellar, meaty tones, saline, young berry. Layers of crunchy dark berry, beef blood, sauvage, and iron on the hearty, pure palate. Fresh acidity and firm tannin. Long finish of mildly rustic, coppery red fruit cut with stone and iron. An excellent village wine full of youthful, unbridled energy.

Dekantert 1 t. Mørk kjerne, lite utvikling med tanke på fargen. Det lukter treverk, fioler og urter. Dyp og konsentrert munnfølelse, utrolig bra village! Mørk frukt og god friskhet harmonerer godt i ganen, bra lengde og litt urter i rekylen. Energisk og holdbar vin, vil holde en stund til. Fantastisk kjøp i sin tid.

Aromas: Kirsch, black cherry, oak, liquorice, cedar. Peppercorn and some gameyness after some time opening up.
A beguiling scent, with a lot of ripeness for an 18 year old.
On the tongue: Medium acidity, delicate tannins, supple. Lasts a long time on the tongue.
Incredibly perfumed and interesting wine.
After some time, blueberry compote becomes the dominant aroma.
