Insanely aromatic! Translucent ruby colour, leather, walnut, almond, medicinal dried herbs, sweet candy fruits! Linear palate and a good depth, smooth and sweet! With or without decanting, drink now or within the next five to eight years! A beauty!

The wine was ruby and very cloudy, weird texture and almost thick. The taste was good though, sappy red fruits, stewed meats, and some herbal tea. something happened to this bottle in its life and if not for the weird color and texture, this would have been a really good wine

Such a beautiful wine. If served blind, would have never guessed 2nd label. It's more muscular and tannic and a bit less developed than the 2000 but with an hour of decant it is totally fine to enjoy now. And the nose is, oh, so magnificent. If this is so good, can't even imagine what the grand vin will be like in 10-15 years.

Sensational nose of blueberry, blackcurrant, licorice and plum pudding although a little acidic in the mouth to my taste. Sour cherries, redcurrant and stewed plums. Tannins are still firm. Long finish. Lots of years to go on this.

Deep ruby color. Primary flavors of blackberry, dark red cherry, licorice and pepper, secondary vanilla,
High in acidity, soft tannins at this point
