Has not changed much the last year. Solid QPR.

A truly complex and fruit driven gem in peak right now. Mandarin, apricot and cludberry. Such a nice mouth feel and in balance. Perfect acidity to carry the sweet stuff. One of these scenarios where you almost scream out loud "WHY did I not buy more!?"..

Such a different wine. Amazing aroma, taste of lemoncurd, nuts and browned butter. Fairly acidic, yet very balanced. Great wine.

Improved since last bottle. Got a bit of spice to it. Pair with light meat.

Magnum bottle decanted for 4 hours which is an absolute for the wine to come togheter. Upon opening it's closed with mostly tannin and alchohol in taste. When poured after the decant I'm amazed by how vibrant this wine is even 20 years after production. Quite complex with a nice mix of fruit and tietary aromas. Served with elk steak and gravy sauce. Faboulus pairing.

I've got one more bottle but no hurry to consume it. It will probably show as good as today for the next 5 years +.

I feel priveliged to get to drink a 98 Solaia. Just in a perfect spot right now. Balanced, warm, beautiful. Ligher than expected as it's very sophisticated. Not the bold and plump feeling you can get from some SuperTuscans. Loved it.

Very enjoyable! Sofisticated and well-made.

2/25/2024 - TomEndresplass Likes this wine:

Great and unique wine. Still a bit young? Needed 2 hours decant to brush off some of the greens and acid.

Wine is both tropical and floral. Has the mineral freshness of a Chablis. Beautiful aroma. Worth it's price.

No need to worry aboit 27yrs of age. Still kicking and is probably at it's top now and probabably will be for 5-10 more years.

Plum, raisin, spice, chocholate, forrest, wer leaf, tobacco. Amazing!

Such a subtile and sophisticated wine. Smooth tropical fruits, perfect acidity, a litle minerals to go with it. This wine is in a perfect place. Full harmony and balance. A treat!

Great wine. nice ageing notes, I believe this is peaking and will not improve from here, but might stay as it is for a while. A bit unbalanced upon opening, but a couple of hours in the decanter did the job. Highly balanced, very nice teritary notes, ripe fruit so nice integrated oak. Highly enjoyable and paired well with rack of lamb.

Yellow apple, lemon curd, superb minerality and elecric acidity. Just a very very good wine. I believe it still have some good years, yet I can see it will get any better. Love it the way it is now.

Wow! Such a surprise. Carefully decanted 30 minutes. Smooth and elegant wine. Ripe, but still fresh fruit and good acidity. Well integrated oak and beautiful tanins. Complex wine, and I just love how harmonic and vibrant it is after 29 years..

Nice warm fruit, mushroom and smoothness. So much better than last time a year ago.

10/17/2023 - TomEndresplass Likes this wine:

Original caracter with limegrass and baked lemons. Good quality wine for the price. Not sure if cellaring will benefit as it's both balanced and good now.

10/1/2023 - TomEndresplass Likes this wine:

Fine acid in combination with teritary notes like forrest leaf, leather, smoke. It has a special appearance of curred meat. Paried with white pizza with mushroom and truffle salami. Amazing!

Wow! This wine has developed into a great steak wine. Silk smooth and balanced as a rock. A lot of ash, coffe and leather. Pairs so well with proteins. Loved it!

7/15/2023 - TomEndresplass Likes this wine:

Amazing wine. Great fruit on day one. More teritary flavours day two. This is in a great place right now if you want an integrated wine with top fruit. Save if you want more secondary aromas. Will live on for many years.

7/3/2023 - TomEndresplass Likes this wine:

Still alive and good. Probably past prime, but a pleasant pour.

2hours decant. Amazing wine. Paired with deer and red wine sauce. Big, bold, round, fruity and with multiple layers. Just wow!

6/15/2023 - TomEndresplass Likes this wine:

Needed a looong time to wake up and air out the age. Mushroom, leaf, forrest floor, cigar, leather and some dried fruit. So much fun and great to drink. Drink up, but ensure you slow decant for 24h or decant in +5 hours.

Beautiful wine at a good plaxe now. Decanted for 2 hours. Just got better and better. Lots of red fruit, balanced oak/vanilla, cigar box leather and herbs. Underestimated priducer.

After 4 hours the alcohol is integrated. So balanced, consentrated, big, bold and beautiful. Reminds of a port but better. Clearly notes of a Supertuscan, but in a Amarone costume. Just lovely on it's own. Still have many years and a small upside.

Great body with gentle and mature fruit - Yellow apples and baked lemon. Very good balance between acid and sweetness from the fruit. Beautifull bubbles. Some ageing notes in the after-taste. Very very good wine!
