  Very refined and feminine ... guessed Margaux at first. It's indeed a light version of the Grand Vin.
  
  Just under-performing for me personally, or perhaps my expectation were too high, who known.
  
  Not sure on the P/Q ratio here.

  What a wine. Complex, deep bouquet, long finish and velvety. Lots of Plum and full floral. Super enjoyable. Great wine.

  Fully developed, this gorgeous, sexy, soft, polished, medium-bodied, silky wine is ready to. Plummy, floral and supple, this is a nice version of a Jr. Cheval Blanc.

  Luftet i ca. 3 timer. Tett, mørk rød. Nydelig balansert nese med aromatisk integrasjon, om ikke nevneverdig utvikling. Lær. Mørk frukt av bjørnebær og kirsebær, men vanskelig å beskrive for en ikke-Bordeaux entusiast. Fyldig og tett i munn. Høy konsentrasjon, men noe aromatisk lukket. Svær og tung. Tannisk og ganske hard. Medium lang finish per nå. 14 %, føles som 14 %. Trenger minst 10 år til.

  Nice well balanced wine. Slightly on the sweet side but good berry presence adding a bit of acidity to balance the sweetness. Short to medium finish.
