Think this has hit it’s peak and may be on the decline Not that this was a bad wine but fruit felt it had faded slightly and although it improved a little with air it felt it may tire. Lacking a bit of depth for my liking but decent enough with a bit of time in the glass

well in its drinking window now. Fruit has faded a little now and dusty graphite profile shows through. Drank very well across the evening so still has probably a couple of years in it but very approachable now and wouldn't imagine it has much room to improve.

Really singing right now but still good for a few years yet Delicious and very quaffable. Nice balance of cherry and blackcurrent fruit and cedar secondaries. Softer tannin and moderate acidity make this very approachable on its own.

Ausbalanciert zwischen Graphit, Waldboden, Leder usw. und Kirsch, Frucht usw.
Ist voll ausgereift.

Not too bad for the vintage. Good to drink now, but should last for some 10 more years or so.
