Red fading a bit at the rim, Touch of raisin on the nose, dried fruit, tobacco, aromatic, herbal, it's a bit wild like an old school Rasteau. Definitely showing its port heritage on the palate, a little hot and wild, but also love the aromatics. So it's not particularly polished or elegant but it's great fun and ageing with some grace.

Hieno tumma makumaailma: karhunvatukkaa, nahkaa, tummaa suklaata ja havuja. Vähän ohut suutuntuma, joka kyllä hieman tiukkenee auetessaan. Mielummin toki näin kuin superraskas alkoholipommi.

I got conflicting impressions for that wine. The aroma is very interesting with touches of chocolate. However, lack structure and persistence. Perhaps the wine is young. I will drink my other bottle in 3 to 5 years.

Elegant with aromas of black fruit and licorice and good acidity. Well balanced. Better than in January 2013.
