Plum, cherry, cedar, cola and mushroom on the nose and palate. Tannins were slightly chalky. The acidity was solid but not overpowering. A simple but soundly made Bordeaux. Drinking about as well as I could have hoped.

Iets transparante jonge-kersenkleur. Brede lichte rand, veel tranen. Eerst wat moeilijke neus, nadien zwart fruit, groene koffiebonen, gebalde indrukken van rijp en gedroogd fruit, wat groene tonen ook en een lichte kruidigheid. Zachte aanzet, met ineens wat tanninebitters en wat tekort aan fruit. Eerder wat wrangheid overheerst. Momenteel niet overtuigend, maar evolueert. Volgende dag beter, ronder, zachter, met mooie structuur en lengte. Redelijk vol en krachtig, kruidig, zwart fruit. Geduld, dus.

Waited too long, not as good as its sister bottle also consumed recently, but still very good.

Decanted 2 hours
Red fruit, touches of almond, moderate tannins
Merlot dominance evident throughout, enjoyable everyday red; for the price, VERY good

Dark fruits upfront with a touch of oak. Soft tannins. Drinks like a basic bordeaux should.
