  August 23, 2015 - Amazing fruit, think blueberry pie. Tannins still present but perfectly balanced. Wish I had more...

  May 18, 2013 - Tat cherries on the nose and palate with a bit of underbrush. Well balanced.

  July 29, 2010 - Blackcurrants, figs and tobacco on the nose. Blackcurrant on the palate and a long aftertaste of dried fruits, coffee and a hint of banana . As Hamadali noted, it starts out very smooth, but after a couple of hours in the open, the tannins really start to manifest themselves. Despite the vintage, the wine is at a modest 13,5 % alcohol, it is well-balanced and doesn't strike me as being cooked in any way. It still has some stuffing left, and is still a few years away from its peak. Good stuff

  May 28, 2010 - Huge dark fruit and smokiness on the nose. Juicy berries on the palate with silky structure initially, but leaving a slightly dry mouth. Nice long finish. Classy bordeaux blend.
