May 2, 2020 - Had this wine in Zalto Burgundy and Zalto Universal glass, also decanted it in the big Zalto decanter.
I get notes of chocolate , blackberries , cherries , all these are in both nose and mouth.
The wine is really good and well composed.
Will i buy it again....probaly not as i find other wines to have better potential...
And i think this wine can last to at least 2030. -

March 7, 2019 - Deep purplish red with ruby edges. Well balanced nose with layers of earth, red currants, tobacco, damp earth and a touch floral. Medium dry tannins (6/10) with a medium plus body. Quite a bit of acidity with bramble, black currants, cherries and earthiness. Long finish. Drink till 2024.

May 27, 2018 - Truly exceptional wine from nose to finish. Elegantly layered, wave of fruit after wave. Approachable now after 30 minute decant or hold for decade or more.
