Monthly Tuesday group #009: 25 years or older. (By JWS): In the bouquet flavors like rust, leather, tobacco, nuts, cocoa, licorice and sweet spices. On the palate coffee, mocha, chocolate, tea, mushrooms, teak and some lovage. There is ok acidity and completely melted tannin. There was a lot to taste and the wine was still drinkable, but too old for my palate. No score.

First pour was wet wool right out the gate, but blew off over time. Nose had very little remaining. Surprised by the palate, decent taste of cherry and plenty of acid remaining. As to be expected, not particularly complex or long, but a nice glass of mature wine that has held up quite good. Thanks Jason!

Gått över tiden, inte mycket doft och smak kvar. Ingen defekt doft eller smak. Tegelbrun urblekt färg.

Christie's Pre-Sale Tasting (Amsterdam): Old and faded but fragrant, juicy and lively wine with lovely tannins.
