December 25, 2014 - Fragrant again, very dark fruit, liquorice, spices, smoke, kirsch liqueur. On the palate sweet fruit at first, but then a little simple towards the finish, a bit astringent. Drink up. 88-90

July 13, 2014 - Very fragrant, rich dark fruit, incense, wood smoke, herbs and forest notes. Nicely evolved, gentle tannins, good acidic bite and structure, round with good length. No rush, drink over the next couple of years. 90-92

September 27, 2013 - uma surpresa! havia comprado uns meses atras, em promoção, e sabe como é vinho de promoção, vc sempre abre com um pé atrás. Pois bem, devia ter comprado mais de 1 garrafa.
Vamos aos fatos:
visual denunciava a idade, bordas largas, coloração já indo pro tijolo. desde o começo, muito aroma, especiarias, flores secas, frutas secas, um pouco de tabaco. Na boca, alcaçuz, algo de baunilha, tabaco, além dos identificados no aroma. Tinha bastante coisa ali. O corpo já não estava tão cheio, mas os taninos macios, e o final longo.
Valeu a pena. Não sei se pagaria o preço original, mas estava realmente excelente. 90 pts. -
