Wine of the night for me and a lot of people at the table. Let it decant for multiple hours but I couldn't resist a small taste beforehand and wow was I hyped to taste it later! Huge whiff of smoked bacon, black fruits and black olives. Dark red color. The nose after it decanted was intoxicating! Again with the smoked bacon, blackberries and plums, vanilla, black olives following into the palate where you also got some pepper, expresso, herbs and spices. Smooth tannins despite it being a baby and a super long finish. This is an amazing Côte-Rôtie that will take on 20 more years easily! Wow!

Flowers, black plums. blackberries, black cherries, smoke, licorice, herbs, olive, and spice shine in the perfume. The wine is full-bodied, long, and intense. Drink from 2025-2045.

Rhône Tasting-cum-Lunch (Restaurant Rijsel, Amsterdam, NL): From a warm year, this is a wine with remarkable freshness and floral notes, blue and black fruit, deep but playful, expansive finish. Very stylish. A clear step up from the Ampodium. Similar to the Ampodium 2019, the impressive tannic power is much more to the fore in the second day, but aromatically the wine remains beautifully expressive. The expression “iron fist in a velvet glove” comes to mind. Completely intact on the third day.

Oh my! What a magnificent wine. Intoxicating nose with all kinds of pure black fruits, smoked meats, truffle and herbs.
The wine is already singing but will develop even more complexity as time goes on - easily 20 to 30 years to do so.
Mouthfeel is impressive, coats the palate and stays there for a long and marvelous finish. Such concentration is

Rik duft av bringebær, blåbær og bjørnebær, litt brød. Fyldig, varm , kompleks frukt i munnen, men med flott struktur.
