First of a case. Drank over 4 nights. Actually 3 as third night did not sample. In line with the previous reviews. Well packed with flavors. Young. Stayed that way over 4 days. As one who leans towards wine with age, I am looking forward to opening the rest of the bottles starting in a decade.

Decanted 4 hours and followed 3 more hours. This has immense potential. Very reductive, decanting much needed. Like a stubborn teenager telling you to get lost, dark and brooding, until suddenly, after 4 hours of decanting it shed its reductive shield and revealed a gorgeous nose of garden smells. Primarily black currants, but also an array of fresh herbs, roses and sour cherries. The palate much of the same, very fine, though persistent tannins. Very sweet at first, though a lovely bitterness grew with air. This should age very well, at the end of dinner it developed even greater depth and complexity. I guess this should be at its best 2028 forward. Possibly a 95+ points wine at its peak

Ung nå. Mørk og seriøs, men også med en del florale og sjarmerende innslag. Sexy stil, men trenger tid.
