The nose offers coffee, milk chocolate, cherry, ripe black currant, and a touch of leather. The black currant is carried over to the palate, drying tannins, hint of mint, coffee, cherry stones, and ripe cherry. Rather delicate and polished, but there's plenty of power in the wine to satisfy me.
I imagine this will drink well for at least the next 5 years, but acidity isn't extremely high, so I'd personally drink sooner rather than later. It might develop some more delicious leathery notes, though.
Paired well with ribeye, fries, and sauce bearnaise.

Bold, juicy and soft. PnP in a good window.

Great value, and drinking very well currently.

Een delicate geur van kersen. Smaak van kersen vond ik iets minder spannend dan de Labyrinth - en die vond ik ook al niet zo heel lekker.
