September 11, 2023 - Farven tæt, dyb og granatrød. Klar, men ikke brillant. Duften lækker med masser af moden frugt. Har tydelig stald og urter. Dejlig med en fin kompleksitet og har tydelig den modne vins præg. Smagen har stor fylde. Moden frugt. Har fortsat syre og tannin som dog ikke misklæder. Kan godt fornemme de 15% alkohol. Pæn stor koncentration. Lang eftersmag. Dejlig vin, som sagtens kan matche en stor moden Bordeaux.

September 3, 2022 - Colour: medium(+) ruby
Nose: medium(+) intensity, tertiary, developing. Red and black plum, strawberry, raspberry. Rose petals. Cedar, cinnamon, nutmeg, dark chocolate. Quite perfumed!
Palate: dry, medium(+) acidity, medium tannins, high alcohol (15%), medium(+) bodied. Medium length finish, medium(+) intensity. Red and black plum, strawberry, raspberry. Rose petals. Cedar, cinnamon, nutmeg, dark chocolate.
Conclusions: very good. Holds its high alcohol well, doesn't seem disjointed or unbalanced. Can drink now, but suited to further ageing.
Seal: DIAM10 cork
