Bricking. Heavy tobacco, fig on the nose.. very long and smooth. Needing 2plus in the decanter. Probably time to drink.

1 hour decant. Beautiful bouquet. Very well integrated with good fruit and tertiary notes. Soft silky tannins

This has already changed a lot. Tertiary notes coming forward with the fruits in the background. Still needs some time to mellow out but very good

ery pleasant. Dry cherries, leather and spice. A bit all over the place but better than I was expecting. Large amount of sediment.

Needed an hour decant. A great not spectacular tig. Dried cherry, leather, smoke and earthy notes. Velvety finish.

Opened up after a few minutes in the glass. Beautiful bouquet. Was amazing for about 30 minutes before completely falling apart. Dry cherry, smoke and spice. Well beyond its prime.

Still very purple. Popped and poured. Was great after 10 min. Started to flatten out after 2hours. Great bouquet.. spice, cherry and leather on the nose. Very earthy with cedar and spices. complex and well integrated.

Simply outstanding. 1 hour decant. Dark colour with cherry and earth on the nose. Tart cherry with well blended tannins and a medium smooth finish.

Needed 2 hours in the decanter. Really showing nicely

Fairly muted with some early notes on the nose. Really opened up after about an hour. Outstanding.Dry cherries with hints of tar, leather and minerals. Silky tannic finish. Better than the last bottle. Wait another year for the next.

Drinking very well after an hour decant.. great structure with dark raspberry notes followed by a tarry leathery firm finish..

Dry cherry with a little funk on the nose. Notes of cherry and spice.. underwhelming for the price point

Spice, blueberry, and leather on the nose. Great complexity and length

Cherry and spice on the nose. A little bitter on first taste. After a couple hour decant this was much more integrated with cherries , leather, and earthy notes. Great grip on the finish. Not as approachable as the 13. Will try my next bottle in a couple years

12/5/2017 - henrik33 wrote:

Powerful red fruits and earth on the nose. Very well integrated with cherry and minerals. Great finish with some heat. I have some 10in the caller which still needs some time. The 13 is good to go.

Hot on the nose with leather dark fruit and spice. After a 2 hour decant was very balanced with sweet cherries and spice. Really started to flatten out after 4 hours .

11/19/2017 - henrik33 wrote:

Leather, dark fruit and spice on the nose. First taste of raspberry, spice, and long chewy tannic finish. A bit sweet. Really balanced out and softened the tannins after hour decant.

8/28/2017 - henrik33 wrote:

Very good.. powerful cherry and plum flavours.. burly chewy tannins. Try again in a few years

Very much like a bergundy. Earthy with cherry notes. Very well balanced. Drinking well now billy should improve immensely.

4 hour decant.. This is what a CDP is all about.. definitely drinking well now but will probably wait another year before pulling the next bottle... fig and dried fruit on the nose. Very tarry with smoke, graphite, iodine and earthy notes..

Lots of cherry and plum on the nose . Great structure. Tobacco and minerals on the finish. Restaurant purchase. Wish I could have let open for a few hours. Very young, still needs several more years.

2/18/2017 - henrik33 wrote:

Showing great complexity. Dried cherry and plum on the nose with hints of tobacco and dried spice. Multilayered on the palate. Distinctively old world. Juicy with grainy tanin. Long spicy finish. A lot going on here. Drinking great after six years in French oak.

Still a baby. Earth minerality and smoke leading to a balanced cherry finish .Firm tannins .. This needs some time but should be a beauty.
