Beautiful and rustic bouquet, creamy dark and red berries as well as some pleasant barnyard. On the palate beautiful dark berries, vanilla, sweet spices, chocolate, beautifully fresh acidity and tannin with still a lovely and firm bite and pleasant bitterness in the finish. After the vintage was revealed, I was especially impressed by the good freshness. Great wine with still a great future. Pity I don’t own any bottles.

Truly beautiful and complex bouquet with sweet spices and dark berries. On the palate still a powerful wine with dark and red berries, some bell pepper, beautiful and well integrated oak, good acidity nicely balanced by some sweetness and round, firm tannin. This wine will easily last another 2 decades, but is already a great pleasure now. 96+

Extremely beautiful bouquet with dark berries, mint, sweet spices, beautifully integrated oak and cedar. On the palate an enormous concentration and complexity. Dark berries and cherries. Some green bell pepper impressions as well. Beautiful acidity and tannin with a good bite. Have a few, which I will carefully spread over the next 2+ decades. 98+ without any doubt.
