  July 13, 2019 - Gorgeous, perfect nose, but feels like it's not yet at peak and will be even better in ~5 years

  June 16, 2019 - After a 90 minute decant, the color is a fully mature deep crimson. The nose rings of dust and dark rose petals. The body is full, the palette is driven by black fruits, yet the tannins are still present.

  March 6, 2019 - Achim's Magnum Tasting 2017 (Berens am Kai 1 star Restaurant): Wirkt jetzt schon sexy und zugänglich. Neben der Cassisnote, etwas Leder, Mokka und dunkle Schokolade. Dazu etwas Bleistift. Der Wein ist deutlich harmonischer als der Mitstreiter. Hier paßt alles zusammen. Trotz der dominierenden Frucht bieten die erfrischende Säure und die bereits integrierten Tannine ein großes Trinkvergnügen. 97(99)

  February 24, 2019 - Deep purple color with a bouquet and flavor of eucalyptus, tar, and leather, with hints of cassis. Still quite closed and will likely improve with more time in bottle. I have decided to withhold a rating. This wine went through Hurricane Katrina and may have suffered as a consequence.

  February 4, 2019 - One of the best bottles of this vintage I can recall tasting. This continues to soften, fill out and add nuances to the concentrated, lush, rich, full, floral, pure style of the vintage. With a genuine depth of flavor, rich, silky textures and soft tannins, the sweet, deep red fruits in the finish hang with you for close to 60 seconds. By 2025, this should enter its plateau of maturity and will offer pleasure for at least 40 more years after that.
