Saturday, January 24, 2015 - Dark cherry red, very clear --- Nose milk powder, cocoa, elegant, I mean very elegant seamlessly integrated wood notes, bourbon vanilla, pralines, paper, cardboard, corn, pickeled dark fruit --- Palate warm, watery, light cherry juice, wonderful shy acidity, cinnamon, clove, hay, coconut, wonderful wood notes in the background, chewy tannins, nice sweetness --- Finishes medium long on elegant tartness and fruitiness. Overall very balanced, elegant and tasty. Very rich flavour profile, appears not to be engineered but stylish and delicate. It is made but not overdone. I love it.

However, it might improve body and flavour definition over the next 3 years and hold this level for another 1-3 years. Best drinking: 2014 - 2018.
In my view secondary flavours will lift up drinking pleasure while tertiary will make it rather boring.
