  By the glass. Bottle open the nite before. Brownish colour with garnet piping. Subtle aromas of flowers (something like carnations) but I feel somewhat artificial and also some sweet spices from wood. In the mouth it is equally direct. At this point of the match, I find neither harmony nor depth. It seems rather that each element played on its own. We will have to wait but I think it is very flat and without the essential sensations frome this terroir. We will still wait.
  
  Por copas. Botella abierta la noche anterior. Color amarronado con ribetes granates. Sutiles aromas a flores (algo así como a claveles) pero se me antojan un tanto artificiales y algo de especias dulces procedentes de la madera. En boca es igualmente directo. A estas alturas del partido, no encuentro ni la armonía ni la profundidad. Más bien pareciera que cada elemento jugase por su cuenta. Habrá que esperar pero me parece muy plano y sin las imprescindibles sensaciones el terruño. Aun con todo esperaremos.

  I agree with Panoskakaviatos - lots of oak, messy on the palate, pretty sweet and a bit confected. 85-87

  UGCB 2015 tasting (Amsterdam): In the bouquet smoky and toasty oak beside the black berry fruits. Overall a very tempting wine with lovely oak, a touch of pleasant sweetness and good acidity. For the second year there is 5% Petit Verdot in the wine. Beautiful wine! 92++

  Amsterdam UGCB Tasting and Winemakers' Dinner (Grand Hotel Krasnapolsky / Café De Klepel): Tasting, brief note. Reminds me of the energy which I found in the 2010, ripe fruit and smoky oak, tannic but with a lovely generosity, a success in this vintage.
