Creamy berries, more round than 2011, some pleasant vanilla from the oak.
Full bodied and round. Still sticky tannin. Good structure. Better than expected considering the vintage. 92+?
Sticky tannin and some metal impressions. A firm dose of acidity. In this stage I preferred the 2012.
Beautifully round dark berries and a pleasant dose of oak. Friendly acidity.
A bit perfumed in the bouquet, juicy dark berries, good acidity and well dosed oak.
Dark and red berries, some licorice and earth. Good acidity.
Red and dark berries, some bell pepper, good acidity and sticky tannin. I was slightly disappointed and score it a point less than earlier this year.

Compared to 2015 this wine has more structure, but it is hard to say if it is really better. Time will tell. For the moment good dark berries and sticky tannin. The same score as 2015.
