Still far. Deep black cherry, coffee and berries. Dry tannins. Rather long finish. A bit too rustic to merit a higher score, but overall it aged well and is worth the close out price I paid at the time.

Kleur: Diep donkerrood met oranje-bruine rand Aroma / bouquet: Rijk en belegen bouquet, kenmerkend voor een wijn op leeftijd. Maggi en soja. Verfijnd hout. Smaak / Afdronk: Start: Krachtig en overtuigend, uitgesproken frisse zuurgraad, krachtige en robuuste tannines. In de afdronk: hard en hoekig, harde zuren . Algemeen / potentieel: Vreemde disbalans tussen het rijpe bouquet en de harde smaakindruk. 50 + Kleur: 5 + Aroma / bouquet: 11 + Smaak / Afdronk: 12 + Algemeen / potentieel: 6 = 84/100
