March 1, 2024 - Rubinrot, noch praktisch keine Alterstöne. Intensive Nase, sehr Sociando-like, grüne Paprika, Cassis, feuchter Stein, Zedernholz, kühl, mineralisch geprägt. Schlanker Gaumen, nur 12.5 Alkohol, sehr frisch, elegant, knackige Frucht, gut verpacktes Tannin und lebhafte Säure. Trockenes, frisches Finale. Viel Trinkfluss aktuell. Bis 2030 geniessen.

December 26, 2022 - Perfectly mature. Smooth, ripe red berries, cedar, tobacco, gentle sweet spices and roast aromas, but still sufficient freshness to want more. Drink now and over another 3-5 years.

December 14, 2022 - Old claret. Raisins, figs, bell pepper dominant, earth and dirt. This is mature and starting to go over the hill. But still quite pleasant, some slight sweetness in the finish. 90-91
