October 16, 2022 - Light bodied, almost like a Pinot Noir. Medium+ acidity and medium tannins, medium finish. Lack of body made this a barely enjoyable experience and definitely one you should drink up.

September 21, 2021 - Medium garnet. Intense floral and green herbs. Tannins completely resolved, and mostly with flavours of pepper, charcuterie, and developed tart cherry flavours, then cloves and nutmeg that extend to the back. Somewhat lean, that’s from all that ageing, but still enjoyable

October 27, 2014 - How to rate this wine? As a wine or as a 1972 wine drank in 2014?
Lucky shot I think... It still has a great nose with lot's of cedar like an old wardrobe. good on the palate with hints of paper, leather and wet leaves. I like it and drank the whole bottle. When you do that, do it quick becauses it collapses quick.
And not unimportant... I paid 18 euro's for it. -

February 20, 2013 - En gammel dreng - gemt i mange år. 41 år. Vi var spændte da proppen kom af. Meget lys farve - lys mursen eller næsten som en Beaune. 100% fin ren smag af fine jordbær brombær og kirsebær afsluttes med lidt eg. Eftersmag kort med syre. Vine bliver bedre i glasset - men os os får den ikke nok tid.
