  • Dark red with brownish edges, dried fruit in the nose. Very mature. Dried dark berries, dark chocolate, leather and a hint of tobacco. Harmonious. Elegant medium finish, the 15,5% alc well integrated. I doubt that the wine will develop any further. Very good now, excellent pairing with ragu.

  • Solid 3 hour decant. Dried cherries, dark berries, and a little leather. Went really well with dry aged steaks. Will last many more years but wonderful now.

  • D1h. Dark garnet red, yellow rim, 5.5. Classic bouquet of dried raisins, plums, maturity sweetness and slightly oxidative. Massive palate showing the same elements as well as high alcohol, long spicy finish. Drink now or wait if even more maturity is desired. Truly a vino meditatione.

  • Tja, bum, bum. Jeg er ikke den store fan eller også er jeg uheldig med en mindre god flaske. I næsen overvældende sherrynoter og dernæst sherry! Med god vilje desuden lidt blommer, rosiner og svedsker samt cassis og endelig et ordentlig skud sød bourbonvanille. Egentlig lækkert, hvis man kommer forbi det tykke sherry tæppe. I munden er vinen lækker cremet og næsten portvinsagtig med en god del mørk tørret frugt. Med mad fungerer det rigtig fint - uden er det særdeles vanskeligt og kræver, at man virkelig er Amaronefan. Voluminøs eftersmag, der bare holder ved. Igen mørk frugt, lidt sød vanille og fortsat mærkbar tanniner, men desværre også den allestedsnærværende sherrynote.
