Agréable surprise après 10 ans d'attente et 4 heures d'aération. Tannins bien fondus, bois bien équilibré et grande longueur en bouche. Meilleur KJ réserve à ce jour. Tellement plus intéressant qu'il ya 5 ans... À boire sans tarder cependant.

Soft scents of cherries, florals and oak on the nose. This is a pretty fruit forward wine with strawberries, bitter chocolate and oak on the tongue. A bit to my surprise, this 12 year old wine is still deep red, almost black in color, and still has a life left inside. There was a red plastic melted over the cork, I wonder if that helped? I would say 89, but I am so impressed by how well this wine has held up, it deserves another point for it ageing potential.

A bit past and light, but very drinkable.

a bit past its prime but very good. I was impressed that it still had a bit of fruit left!

Need air. Bit musty but multiple layered, complex, and thoughtful. I pleasant conversation on the palate.
