Beautiful bouquet with dark and red berries and autumn impressions. On the palate chocolate, dark berries, a light dose of oak, some celery but still good acidity and length. Also a touch of sweetness. The wine is fully mature and will not improve anymore. Possibly it is already a bit on its way down. Drink soon!

Sweet spices, dark berries and vanilla in the bouquet. Same on the palate, chocolate, firm acidity and bitterness, juicy dark berries, laurel and licorice, a firm amount of sweet spices.

Very mature bouquet with celery and forest floor. On the palate very mature as well with mushrooms, sweet spices and celery, ok acidity. Just after pulling the cork the wine was still a pleasure to drink, but later that evening and the next day it was really too old. No score.

Refined, great nose, elegant (for a Madiran), all is in place in this super bottle. What a feast!

Past peak.
Did recover a bit after an hour out of bottle.
