Thursday, June 2, 2011 - Opened a couple of hours before. This wine simply blew me away, never before had I encouintered such a perfect combination of finesse, complexity and intensity. Beautiful, perfumed nose with scents from all registers mixed in endlessly changing combinations. Tons of fruit there, but also spices, herbs (green and black tea). Oak is definitely present but harmoniously integrated in the blend. Palate showed incredible intensity and volume, pronouced sweetness but with impeccable balance. Tannins are abundant but of such refined quality that the tactile sensations they procure are a treat by themselves. Great length. Even though I am sure this is possible, I can't imagine anything better than this. DRC rocks big time!
