November 25, 2022 - Full of fruit, powerful but simple structure. A very dry wine with too much oak from my taste. Good final. Wine is more supple than a full malbec, thanks to a blend with Cab Sauv.

November 15, 2022 - Incredibly smooth. Drinking beautifully. Still some fruit so probably has a few years left, but is close to peak.

November 5, 2022 - Decanter Fine Wine Encounter (The Landmark, London): Slightly sour blackcurrant, Ribena, cream joins fruit on the palate tannins re drying, persistent but finely textured. Again this is quite simple.

October 9, 2022 - Ikke pengene værd.
Mangler duft.
Smagen er skøn men ikke spændende nok til prisen.
