Druesammensætningen er Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot og Feteasca Neagra. Jeg har tidligere smagt årgang 2007 og syntes de er på samme høje niveau. Farven er rubinrød med lidt lilla toner. Duften er tydelig med toner af røde mørke bær, lidt peber måske, krydderier og simpelthen bare dejlig. Smagen er kompleks, fyldig men stadig rund. Der er en god syre og passende tanniner hvorfor den passer godt til mad. Hældt på karaffel og det gør bestemt ikke noget. Krydret lang vedvarende eftersmag. Drukket til okse mørbrad med sidedishes. Mums (3525 views) | | Tasted by cosmin_grozea on 4/9/2012 & rated 93 points: The 2009 Flamboyant is a prodigy, surpassing in quality any other wine produced in Dealu Mare during the same vintage. The wine comes from rather low yields, a normal practice at Davino. Dark red garnet color with purple reflections, the wine is loaded with extraordinary aromas of blue flowers, blueberry, cassis, mint, licorice and vanilla. The initial nose upon opening brings Feteasca Neagra’s aromas on the front stage with rich spiciness, red fruit and dry plums, but as the wine aerates it becomes very clear what is the dominant grape variety with its unmistakable aromas of green bell pepper and sweet cassis. The wine is distinctive through its opulence and structure, but also through its remarkable precision and freshness. As much as it is rich and extracted, the wine combines elegance and power, showing good balance in spite of its 14.8% alcohol. It reveals itself in stages as it aerates, with additional flavors of chocolate, coffee and ripe red fruit. It has a great purity and a long finish, with fine grained but assertive tannins, and lingering flavors of spices and fresh red and black fruits. There is a serious potential for aging and any wine lover should hold 12 bottles in its cellar and watch its development over the next 15 years or more. I can easily say that this is the best Romanian wine I had so far. This is a keeper that truly deserves its name. (93-94/100) (4620 views) |
