Good maturing Bordeaux with a cassis fruit profile. Settles down in the decanter to mellow red fruited claret. Softish finish but no dilution. Ready now or over then next 5 years.

Surprisingly my first 07 Red Bordeaux so a useful benchmark at 12 years old. Some amber at the rim, showing a bit of maturity but a clear garnet core. Gravelly red fruit nose, pleasant and signs of maturity. To taste, ready to drink, secondary development is clear again more gravel and earth in the fruit. Light to medium weight but decent grip, soft rather than dilute. Quite nice. A classic old style luncheon claret.

Meidum garnet. Expressive nose of barnyard, earth and dark fruit. Typical Medoc nose, nice. Nice and pleasant, typical for the 2007 vinatage, not grand but always soft and pleasant. Decent wine for the money.

teglstensfarvet. Tog lidt tid før den viste sig fra sin bedste side. Bordeaux i den dæmpede og lidt moderne stil.
