  Opened 4 hours in advance of wine dinner and tasted. The Carmenere green pepper was powerful, almost excessively so, but hours later mellowed to give this wine a very classic Bordeaux profile but with a bit more new world power. Drinking beautifully with enough structure to go several years. Flint, blue fruit, some green pepper, some tobacco. One of my favorite wines in a long while

  Big but balanced, smooth and rich, with dark almost sweet fruits and a creamy big mouth feel all the way down. This Chilean wine is made by famous people and costs a lot (but then you already know that or you wouldn't be buying it/reading this review). While it could go a lot longer, its in a really nice drinking place right now so if you wanted to check its progress you will not be disappointed. A gift from a dear friend. Thank you SRT.

  Still far too young to be drunk

  Tasted blind. Ripe, but not overripe nose of dark fruit with lots of toffee, mocca. The palate is creamy. No fault in this wine but far too modern/oak driven for my taste.

  A matter of taste (The Dolder Grand, Zurich): *** Brief notes from wine fair, primary for my own memory ***
  Glass: Stölzle Universal
  Incredibly fresh and young. Beautiful nose, really complex. On the palate lots of fruit, 14,5% abv, great texture, very long, hot. Certainly a “Designer wine”, but a very good one! Will continue to improve! 93-94+
