This wine was a bit over the hill; nonetheless, drinkable. Aromas of leather and strawberry dominate. A good wine, but it was probably better a few years ago.

Garnet colour. Deliciously mature nose, liquorice, spice and boot polish. Light palate with a fine balance. Red fruits, asian spices and sweet tobacco. Sodt tannin and a sweet finish.

A dead wine left to sit way past its use-by date. Bought this cheaply at auction out of curiosity. It was not corked or oxidised, there was just no vibrancy or freshness. Smelt like mushroom and stale sweat. Very vague on the palate. Not a hint of tannin yet strangely there was a bit of acidity hanging round.

Reifer Wein, aber schön zu trinken: Helle Farbe, Sherry-Noten, süßlich, interessant! Nicht viel länger lagern.

Worth the effort, in my opinion
Wet leather belt, toasted oak, caramel, green olives. Fleeting. Not bad.
