June 9, 2023 - A pre-50 pre Birthday Celebration; 6/9/2023-6/11/2023 (Around Zurich Area): Requires a lot of decanting and one hour is a minimum.
Sourced pristine from the impeccable cellar of Sonne Seuzach , Switzerland.
The owner of the cellar suggested this as the best Malbec ever made. The OG as an Argentinian friend later called it.. 30,000 bottles made after 19 years in large 2500-6000 litre casks and the next vintage made was the 1994 and wine that the cellar owner said is far too young.
The wine feels like an amarone from 2000. Young vibrant , punchy and frankly felt it can go another 20 years like this. Only Penfolds Grange has this level of longevity in our experience. Dark fruited, soft rich, 14.5% alc , well round albeit with energy of a 10yr old. This is definitely one of those experiences . 93-941 person found this helpful Comment -
