    April 6, 2024 - Sadly corked.

    August 11, 2023 - Auge: dunkles rubinrot

    Nase: intensive Aromen von Brombeeren, Cassis, reife Zwetschgen marmeladig, Vanille, Schokolade. Gereift.

    Gaumen: trocken, mittel (+) Säure, hohes Tannin, mittlerer Alkohol, voller Körper, intensive Aromen wie in der Nase, langer Abgang.

    Qualität: hervorragende Qualität

    Trinkreife: jetzt trinken

    Gesamturteil: Toller, klassischer Bordeaux. Jetzt in optimaler Trinkreife. Wird wohl nicht mehr gross zulegen. Tannine noch klar präsent, braucht entsprechend Essen dazu. Unbedingt dekantieren.

    March 11, 2023 - Very nice aroma, nice fruity, dark berries taste, but is lacking some houmf, missing lenght, tanins unpresent, etc. Still pleasant but not the greatest.

    February 23, 2023 - This is why I drink Bordeaux.

    I know 2011 is an off year. But from the first sniff of this in the decanter, and as it unfurled over a couple of hours, I was captivated. And in the tasting, it lived up to the nose. Just lovely; leather, and funk, and armpit (in a good way) and gravel. Just a joy to drink. I'm so impressed. A delight.

    January 7, 2023 - Drank with a 1967 vintage and that made the tasting even more special.
