November 17, 2022 - Corked.
August 22, 2017 - Mature and even showing signs of age. May have missed the best time for this bottle, but it was very good
January 30, 2017 - Not Tired! This is mature and elegant. Burgundian, really.
May 12, 2012 - Lovely warm (although not over-generous) nose of black fruit and old oak. Red cherries just about still discernible on the palate, but fairly light in mouth feel. Bit disappointing in comparison to much older 1987 I had recently which was still holding up very well. Drink the 1999s up soon.
December 11, 2011 - This was a nice surprise. Better than the bottle I had 2.5 years ago. Thought it be on its way down, but no, the nose was fabulous! And, even though it is medium bodied at most, it is not thin or tired. Holding on very well. However, no point waiting any longer either.
July 20, 2011 - Earthy, barnyardy. Soft pinot-like fruit in the nose. Ripe, dark fruit in the mouth. Short finish, as it is getting tired.
April 23, 2011 - Colour is med light red with a hint of brick. Some wet cardboard that disappears with a swirl to show sweet, light cherry. Sweet mature fruit, sft. Quite a change from it's muscular youth. drink up.
February 28, 2011 - The color is dark red with light signs of aging. The nose has medium intensity, is clean and developed, with sweet balanced oak, with red cherry, chocolate and tobacco aromas. The taste is medium body, a bit hallow on the mid palate, with good acidity and earthy red and black cherry. There is a medium finish with a minty bitter-sweet finish. It feels this wine has peaked already. 87 points
January 13, 2011 - Ritch, elegant, leather, tobacco. Long lasting, deep aftertaste. Drink well now. Upea moniulotteinen viini. Muistuttaa makumaailmaltaan hyvää Bordöötä.
November 2, 2009 - Traumhaft. Alles rund und eingebunden. Perfekt. Warum einen Reserva, wenn so die Crianzas schmecken
