Lovely opportunity to taste this again - very similar observations. Generous fruit, very complex and layered on both nose and palate. Seamlessly integrated acidity, powerdely tannins. Lots of depth, quite powerful, still elegant. Vibrant and persistent finish. Delicious! 93-95

Lovely nose - Jammy in a good way, blackberry compote, spices, tobacco, cocoa, leather. Very layered and complex. On the palate generous and smooth. Wonderful fruit, slightly spicy, mellow tannins, good acidity and great balance. Very long. Drink or keep. 92-94

Eðalklúbbur, vínsmakk #4 vor 2018 (Hlíðarás 10): Svipaður litur og á reservunni á undan. Aðeins dekkri kjarni samt. Leysiefni í nefi. Lykt eins og úr nýjum bíl. Fjós til staðar en mjög nett. Smá remma í bragði. Hörfræ. Tannín áberandi. Vínið samt í mjög flottu jafnvægi og flauelsmjúkt. Virkilega gott vín.
