February 20, 2016 - The wine was in very good condition. Light red, forest, mushrooms. Could never have guessed that this was a 1958, if I had tasted it blind. It was part of a fantastic 1988 dinner: Deutz and Krug champagne, Ch Margaux, Ch Latour, Ch Mouton Rothschild. Even if the Conterno was remarkably fresh, there is no point in keeping it longer in the cellar!

January 1, 2014 - Litt dårlig kork i forhold til tidligere flasker fra samme kjeller. Lys rød, briljant og transparent. Kjeller på nesen som blåser av og erstattes av animalske toner av tørr pels, kjøtt, blod og jern. Bærtoner dukker etterhvert opp men de er vanskelige å fange. Varme toner i munn, fin syre og en finkornet tanninstruktur som tørrer lett i finish. Noe urene toner som står i veien for en ellers frisk flaske. 90p

September 23, 2013 - Igjen en flott flaske. Rød frukt mot kirsebær, skog, lær og mineraler. Lys transparent og funklende farge. Kjølig og deilig munn med en intens syre. Mineralsk finnish. Endeløs.

August 25, 2013 - Lys rød, transparent og glitrende. Røde bær, pene kjellertoner, dyrepels og floralitet på nesen. Stram og kjølig i munn. Fabelaktig syre. Pent støvete tanniner. Lang. Ingen unoter. Lekker bitter finish.
