Last of three bottles. The best of all consumed during the last 12 months. This time it is not diluted and surprises with a lovely Margaux-nose and a medium finish. Price tag in summer 2020: 21 €/bottle.
Addendum: on the second day still lovely.

Let men velbalanceret med dejlig cabernet/merlot blanding. God lang eftersmag, fortsat let tannin. Kan gemmes 1-2 år endnu men også drikkes evt med decantering.

13.0% - Clear, med garnet / clean, med intensity - cassis, blond tobacco leaves, pencil shavings, mix of barnyard mushroom funk, gentle green pepper, vanilla pod, wild strawberry in retro-olfaction / dry, med refreshin acidity, med fluid body, med settled tannin, med intensity, length seems a little short at first - will see with more air. Ripe fruit but remains classic Bordeaux style. 88+

Bordeaux 2009 and some 08's (at the lower end) (Pat O'Briens): The nose is dusty with some cassis. This is a nice solid wine. Not showing any complexity, so I doubt it ever will. Certainly drinking fine right now. Cassis fruit. A bit clipped on the finish. ($30 Ohio)

BArnyard aromas, young fresh fruit with an excellent acidity. Some greenness can be felt. Wait a few years.
