Luftet 3 t ca. Er det … Tommy the Cat? Lukter det propan? Javisst. Det bandet er en smakssak men når du drikker denne vinen bør du faktisk høre på Primus. Gassbrenneren slukker etter hvert. Igjen er en voldsom solbærfrukt, kraftig tobakk - men også trøffel og skogbunn som gir vinen en ekstra dimensjon. Voldsom kraft men også elegant i munnen. Utrolig at vinen bare har 5% cabernet sauvignon. Bedre om 20 år? Yes. Digg allerede? Yes. Glimrende vin

Lovely, expressive nose. Smoky blackberry and raspberry. Cedar, coconut and tobacco. Concentrated with firm tannins at this stage but with great freshness. Very long on the finish. Honestly too young even with a lengthly decant, hold.

A real thoroughbred - probably opened much too young but it was the oldest vintage we could get hold of on a recent trip to Barcelona. My first experience with this and difficult to describe due to the wide range of flavours and its evolution after opening... Light and powerful at the same time. According to the label: 88,188 bottles, 3,537 mags, 328 double mags, 55 imperials and 5 salamanazars produced. Seems like quite a lot?

Had at Bourbon Steak in Nashville.
First time having this wine, and notes are from memory the night before, so bear with me.
Nose was leather, olives, berries, dried strawberry and a hint of something reminiscent of almonds.
Palate followed along with dried fruit, some red, some black. Powerful but elegant, this was a treat to have served.
