PnP, multilayered in the best sense, both red and dark fruits, fantastic aromas and greath lenght, very impressive wine as always, will hold several more years

Our 3rd and last bottle and frankly we should have kept this for a few more years. We had our last 4 yearsa go (Papies 92) and we said wait 3 more but we should have left this for 10 more as the wine is still very much on the power side and exhibits little of the multifaceted side it can achieve one it ages and and becomes more secondary. Still a good 92 but needs time to get into its full stride. Treat it like a 2005 right bank.

Normally one of my absolute favorite wines but tonight after 85 Ygay and 94 L`Evangile it felt young and unfinished - at 21 years! For a wine from Tuscany!!

Sweet red/black fruit notes, deep ruby (which is surprisingly deep for this age) - cedar (from oak), bramble, mint. Still strong primary notes, slight tertiary. Long finish. Tannin/ acidity med+. What’s amazing is the alcohol doesn’t detract - 15% and I didn’t notice it (not hot alcohol, nor port like flavors), which makes this pretty awesome.

Mit erheblich mehr Belüftung als das letzte Mal total ausgewogen - das ist mein Wein - hat den sehr guten Sassicaia 2009 an diesem Abend sowas von weggespielt...für mich geht nicht viel besser...
