Sight: medium tawny Nose: leather, spice, dusty and old. No fruits Palate: light body. Bark is worse than it’s bite. No fruits, leather, not very pleasant, but not undrinkable. Way past it’s prime.

This was a fun one. Probably way past its prime, but still a good drink. Brick color, minimal fruit, still a good bit of acidity and a little tannin left. Dusty/moldy (in a not so bad way) but that faded quickly.

From memory. Was shocked at how youthful this wine came across. Aromatic nose of cherry and leather. Fairly light weight in the mouth, but with good concentration. Finish has loads of refreshing acidity, which I was not expecting at all. Is it really possible this wine has aged so well?

A light, correct bouquet, minerals, also in the taste, a bit lean in the finish, but friendly.

Brick in color nose is dusty moldy book cover. Palate is flat. No fruit. Cured meat. In a bad way.
