Community Tasting Note

  • Nik Lasse Seimsson Likes this wine: 91 points

    May 19, 2014 - 18€/24$ in Germany. Merlot50, Cabernet40, Petit Verdot10, 13.5% vol.
    Eye: Deep purple red, slow legs.
    Nose: Initially a little closed, after bottle was open for 2 hours it developed very nicely. Medium (+) intense nose of ripe cassis, warm but elegant, mint, vanilla, wood, herbs, graphite, multi layered and complex. 12,5/15p.
    Palate: Nicely integrated tannins, smooth, full, round, medium acidity, elegant, dark berries. 12,5/15p.
    Body/Balance: Medium(+) body, well balanced. 8/10p.
    Finish: Medium(+) finish, lasting, good fruit. 8/10p.
    Great qpr, very tasty! A good example for a well crafted Bordeaux at a very fair price. Don't be afraid offering this one to wine-pros, it is very good stuff! Good now and probably for the next 5-7 years.
    12,5+12,5+8+8(+50) = 91/100p.
