This is very good now. Black fruit, licorice, herbs and some smoky hints. Be careful with the last glass of the bottle. It has lots of sediment. But after 13 years, this is a rock solid Bordeaux experience

Really dark and concentrated wine. Cassis, tobacco, anise, hint of spice and oak. All consistent on nose and palate. Very high acid, rich and mouth filling. I enjoyed this but did find it a little too bombastic for me. Probably could have scored higher with a longer decant and if I was in the mood for it.
Fair amount of sediment. Cork tight and in great condition. Decant and give it a good few hours to breathe.

Dark core, brownish rim. Immediate attack of fruity aromas after pouring which quickly fade and wood, toasted aromas and tobacco are taking over. Same impression as two years ago. The complexity and charm of previous years have gone. This oaky and toasty perception continues in the mouth and leaves an ungenerous and unbalanced feeling although tannins are smooth and silky. Developes surprisingly and after 3 hours toast , fruit and tannins get into a nice equilibrium. Still great biodynamic work.

Mye frukt og fylde, solbær, kaffe, tobakk og cedertre. Kunne hatt mer kompleksitet, men dette er mye Bordeauxvin for pengene.
