  Smooth as silk - what a pleasure (hard to compare to a "younger" Admiral). No decanting, pleasant CS nose to me (awkward for 70% Zweigelt), also a bit on the round/sweet side in the mouth, close to zero tannins left and very low acidity. Good medium body and finish. This goes down like oil. Drink now !

  Man merkt das Alter, schon relativ ausgezehrt; in der Nase angenehm mit Tabak, Schokolade, etwas rote Beeren; im Mund eher spröde und eckig, doch noch im Rahmen, mit mittellangem Abgang. Trinken!

  Carafage for 1 hour: Obvious oak notes of mocha, chocolate and nougat on the nose, ripe red berries, a bit sweetish. In the mouthvery smooth and developed, no signs of age but of integration, acidity, berry and mocha aromas go hand in hand, only very little tannins left, longish. Excellent wine right now, no need to hurry but this is peaking and will stay where it is for a few years.

  Not showing its age in terms of colour, still very dark, purple core with slight discolouration towards the rim. Dark cherry fruit on the lovely, perfumed nose: slightly stemmy, creamy and smoky, undergrowth, fine notes of mint. On the palate open and round, still decent grip, slightly spicy, creamy, elegant and fine. Good character of fruit, very long and slightly tart finish. In a great place right now, but no rush. Excellent. 91-93
