Nice wine at the end of its life, drink up! 45 minute decant, still had a nice aroma...smooth. Earthy, dusty flavors, much like a Bordeaux. Nice amount of spice still in this one with a long smooth finish. Be careful with the cork, mine broke in half, no sediment in the bottom of bottle

The wine looks ruby colored. The legs are slow. There is moderate sediment in the bottle. The body is full. The wine has silky texture. The wine finishes long. The wine has low acidity.

20.6.2015: Super Frucht und Komplexität, extrem Bordeaux-typisch, Eukalyptus, leichtholzig, tolle eingebundene Früchte und Holz, Vanille und Honig, SUPER!
20.4.2013: Zum Grillen mit Bernd! Bemerkenswerter Wein! Super Nase (Leder, Rauch, Tabak), mittellanger bis langer Abgang (komplexe dunkle Früchte, Marmelade, leichte Gewürze), unglaublich toll!

Definitely at the end of its prime, but not bad. Our resident wine diva has approved, and she's a tough cookie! Full nose and a nice spice with oaky finish. Did have the same problem others did with the cork- it broke in half when taking it out and we had to push it in and filter out as we poured. Don't over-aerate this wine at this point, it doesn't benefit from it.
