Surprisingly good on day two. Maybe an outstanding kept bottle. Still with a good colour, nice fruit and refreshing acid. Fully matured but no sign of oxydation, full bodied, with spine and decent length.

A GSM blend, even if it isn't stated on the label. Dark red fruit, coffee grounds, cherry and some dried herbs on the nose. The medium to full bodied palate adds more dark red fruit and medium acidity. Surprisingly present smooth tannins and medium finish, tapering towards the tannins. Despite the age, the fruit and the tannins are still intact and present. However, the age has not really brought tertiary tones, but rather just rounded off the whole, including the interesting bits. Still drinkable and enjoyable, but not very exciting. Drink up.

Found it in a corner of the cellar. Missed my chance to drink it. Nothing good left.

It is still not too old and drinks OK, but unimpressive boring wine
