Very distinctive orange-salmon colour. Absolutely glorious floral and fruity nose with raspberry and dried rose dominating. The palate was initially weaker - merely dilute strawberry - and needed 15mins of air and some warming to show. I think this will improve over the next 5-10yrs (the palate just doesn't live up to the nose at the moment) and there is significant upside. Drink 2020-2035. 94-95+pts

Five Oeno's. The 90 Rose Oeno was our reception wine, and while young, it drank well. I've liked this wine every time I've had it, and its going to be great over time. The 69 Oeno showed very good, and time in the glass was well rewarded. Have had better bottles, but this was terrific. The 66 Oeno was the star in this setting, and most of the table liked it best. The 73 Oeno has been one of my favorites of late. This bottle showed excellent straight out of the bottle, but for me it lost a little in the glass over the hour plus we drank them. The 70 Oeno was good. For most of us it was our first crack at this wine, and was fun to drink straight off the boat. Looking forward to drinking a few of these over the next year and seeing how they show.

Still fresh with a red berry richness. A cleaner but slightly less complex profile than some bottles I have had

From magnum. Berries, melons, light earthiness all enveloped by warm yeast and funk. Very nice.
