  5/28/2017 - tobyc Likes this wine:

  Colour: Brown-reddish. Almost Colheita.
  
  Bouquet: Soft w. some rubber, prunes, port, vanilla.
  
  Palate: Initially a bit watery and weak but as it opens it reveals pepper, cinnamon and other spices, olives, port. Complex w. tertiary notes.
  
  Outstanding.

  OnP. Beautiful brick color, orange rim, 3. Wonderfully mature bouquet of years gone by, old casks, spicy stuff, stewed fruit. Harmonious palate with totally resolved tannins, long elegant finish. Drink now - onwards. Stored at the Castello until recently

  Coffee galore, a bit thin in the edges, beautiful, soft, fruit still remains - although past its peak ... #SøllerødKro
