March 21, 2023 - Plums, chocolate, lilacs and Indian spices open the perfume. On the palate, the medium-bodied wine is soft, silky and fresh with layers of creamy cherries, cocoa and plums on the mid-palate and in the finish. Drink from 2023-2038.

March 6, 2023 - UGCB tasting Bordeaux 2020 Walkaround tasting so in general just short notes (Beurs van Berlage, Amsterdam.): Juicy red berries, some smoke. Same on the palate, dark berries and a touch of sweetness. Good acidity and tannin. Beautiful wine with a good length.

March 6, 2023 - The 2020 vintage UGCB tasting in Amsterdam 03/06/2023 (Amsterdam): A surprise for me, soft spices, juicy, tasty, round, concentrated and creamy combined with ripe fruit; very Pomerol-like in the balanced aftertaste; really good!

January 9, 2023 - (97% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc, 14.5% Alkohol) Verhaltene Nase, steinig, kühl anmutend. Im Gaumen schlank und doch kräftig, gute Struktur, ein Mix aus dunklen und roten Beeren, dazu eine herrliche Säure. Keinerlei Alkoholüberhang und mit guter Länge ist das ein gelungener, balancierter Pomerol. 2026-2040 (Verkostet am 8. November 2022 in Zürich) www.vvwine.ch

May 22, 2021 - 91-93 vvPunkte (97% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc, 14.5% Alkohol) Dunkle, steinig-kühle, Nase, öffnet sich langsam, offenbart eine dunkle Frucht, Veilchen, ätherische Noten. Im Auftakt kräftig, rund, vollmundig, ein Mund voll Wein, mit praller, dunkler Frucht, einem mächtigen Gerbstoffgerüst, die Tannine sind hier voll reif und fein gewoben, eine gut integrierte Säure schwingt mit und trägt den Wein in einen dunkelfruchtigen, kühlen Abgang. Dieser Wein zeigt erst einen Bruchteil seiner Aromatik, doch die Elemente sind in wunderbarer Balance. 2027-2042 (April/Mai 2021)
