  In der Nase süßliche Frucht und etwas Waldboden mit Pilzen. Im Glas schon deutlich braun. Am Gaumen sehr dichte Struktur, Tannine, im Hintergrund Zimt (!). Kräuter. Wirkt trotz des Alters (26 Jahre!) noch sehr präsent. Thymian. Ziemlich gut!
  
  2 Tage später immer noch klasse. Im Burgunderglas braunrot. Die Noten von Pilzen und Waldboden sind wieder sehr präsent, verlieren sich aber nach ein paar Schluck.

  Etwas sperrig, krautig. Noch viel Gripp. Fordernd, nicht „ trinkig“

  I bought three of these in Westminster, MD at Cranberry Liquors for $17 a piece. I was a little unsure if anything would be left with respect to fruit and flavor...but man, was I wrong. The fruit was still present (plums and cherry) and beginning to develop into secondary flavors with characteristics of mint and cedary forest floor. After about an hour in the decanter, the mint really came through...but in a good way. This would go very well with lamb chops. I have two more left and I can't wait to pair these badboys up with steak or lamb. Unbelievable QPR.

  Salmon hued purple with bricking at the edges. Autumn woods undergrowth, red fruit, wet stone and licorice background. Quite a well balanced full palate, especially for what was considered a mediocre vintage. Medium length aftertaste.
  Brought back from England where it had been stored since bought.
