  Drank it in a group of 12 wine lovers, nobody guessed his origine. The nose is decent red berries, herbal and spicy. In the palate elegant, earthy, salty and melting creamy sweetness, edged, very balanced with a long finish, For me at his peak, 94

  disappointing bottle of wine : tanine structure still needs some evolving to balance the wine, I'm missing the complexity to make this a great wine, also a rather short aftertaste

  100 RP Points plus some extra's (@ Bottles): Beautiful chocolate, tobacco and some pleasant barnyard in the bouquet. On the palate sweet spices, chocolate and a lot of good fresh acidity. Classical wine, quite mature, but not tired yet.

  Tasting of 100PP wines (Restaurant Bottles, Sas van Gent): Captivating. Old-fashioned style, which I adore. Especially when served in this company. Touch of brett, outdoorsy, beautiful spicy seasoning, fresh black and red fruit play a humble but important role. Great wine.

  Saturday night wines: Deep fruit, complex nose, some heat, tobacco; a fresh and quite structured mouthfeel, very fine length. Structured, quite rustic, still quite interesting due to its complexity.
