A towering nose - dense and crystalline, orange peel, prickly acidity and yet still creamy with caramel notes. Yum. The texture evolves brilliantly and the fruit begins to show an enticing tangerine quality - smooth and rich. Marvelous and BurgHound underrated it in 1995 and again in 2013!

Fairly dark color. Interesting nose filled with caramel and spices and oxidized notes. Still vibrant with pinpoint intensity and concentration with good sweetness and excellent aged flavors of caramel, marmelade and spices. The finish is a bit oxidized and the wine is what i would call a little dirty and slightly out of balance. Still a treat to drink.

Oysters, root vegetable, cheese and cauliflower on the nose. Grand fiery mouthfeel. Elegant and complex!
