Medium ruby colored with some purple notes towards the rim. In the nose ripe red and dark berries, soft tobacco and peppery notes. Blackberries, red cherries, cassis, soft menthol notes and some elegant graphite notes on the palate. Full bodied with a lively and medium intense acidity. Velvety tannins, not completely integrated yet. Very nice fruit structure. Not super complex but the overall depth is great. Feels kind of fresh although the fruit is very ripe. Very nicely balanced. The finish is long and savory. It’s already drinkable with some time in the decanter. Allow it to breathe for at least 1-2 hours. It will definitely profit from more storage time. Drink now until 2036. (IG)

Relatively intense and seductive aromas with a really tight berry touch of blackberries, graphite, against tobacco, leather and spices. Good full-bodied wine with a dense and fresh mouthfeel of youthful blackberries, blackcurrants, purple fruit peel, hints of espresso, tobacco and wood on a long fresh and firm finish. Nice with details here, this one will really just evolve. Great wine! 93 points.

Very young, so the score is as it is for now. Tons of sweet red fruits, high acidity and medium tannin. Needs time to gain fat and fruit, way to young for now.

Second Sunday Group: 2013 Barolo (Neil's): Courtesy of MiY. Black currants and dark berry fruit on the nose and palate. Just a really nice wine...will need to keep an eye open for this.

Amsterdam UGCB Tasting and Winemakers' Dinner (Beurs van Berlage / Eden Hotel): Trade tasting, brief note. Cassis and menthol, meat and earth, good weight, sturdy as usual, firm but well integrated tannins. Should develop well.
