The wine was decanted for two hours prior to tasting. Perhaps it was the extended time in the decanter, but the tannins in this one have softened considerably. Don’t get me wrong, there’s still plenty of structure, but it is drinking nicely right now. The tannins are silky, and the mouth feel is full bodied. Lots of black fruit that is just coming into focus. The wine is a beast upon opening, but some air and a bit of bottle age are working their magic

Decanted for 90 minutes before consumption. Dark ruby color, roast meat nose. Big and tannic, this one still needs a few more years of bottle age. Black fruit, leather, tobacco and deep umami flavors. Good now, there is lots of upside potential.

First glass from coravin. A bit too funky. Raspberry truffle. Green pepper on the mid palate. Vulture comes across but this is a bit wierd, might need some time.

Forgettably over-extracted and hot, with little grace or length. Overhyped.

Toll. Macht Spaß Trinkig. Tannin. Säure.
