This is what a wine made by a maestro wine maker is all about. This is wine for adults! If you appreciate mature well aged wine then taste this. Initial alcohol rush which evaporates in 20’. Full bodie with layers of taste and distinction. Balanced. Smooth. Sometimes yet a firm introduction of certainty. Great with foods but also stand alone

My last bottle, and this wine has been a lot of fun to track over the last 15 or so years. Fully mature at this point, with a deep, brooding nose that speaks more of black fruit than red. Lighter on it's feet on the palate, where some tart red fruit peeks through, with decent acidity. Very good.

I'm getting towards the end of a case I bought on release and this wine feels fully mature at this point. Not that it is showing any signs of decline, but I also don't see any further upside to holding this, so if you have it in your cellar, you might want to pull out a bottle to see what you think.
Earthy red & black fruit on the nose, medium-bodied with good persistence on the palate. Very nice.

It isn’t maderized, but it’s not sound either. Major bummer

Popped, poured, consumed over next 90 minutes. This bottle was obviously not correct. Bummer.
