  Noseful of violets, giving way to black pepper, dark fruit, and tannins. Tasty.

  Deep ruby with russet edge. Blackcurrant, barrique - part of which is new is nicely handled and raspberry, but the nose starts fading after an hour. Quite lovely in the mouth, this fullish-bodied, sweet-fruited claret, confirming the good wood management and the raspberry highlight. Still some grip here and very good plus.

  Weekly tasting group RWP #355: Some random wines (@ DJ): Beautiful bouquet with red berries and well dosed oak. On the palate red berries, chocolate, good and juicy acidity and mild tannin. Elegant wine which is entering its maturity stage and it will probably stay on this level for a few years.

  Ja, wirklich schön! Tolle, tragende Säure, Eucalyptus, rotbeerige Frucht, großartige Balance. Sehr schöne Entwicklung, ich freue mich auf die nächste Flasche.

  This latest bottle seemed more interesting than the last, with more intensity and complexity. It left me wondering if I'd started these a little early and they are now just reaching full approachability.
