Still fruit out front with sour cherry but it faded quickly into tea and leather. Very nice. Enough structure to hold up to the food and be interesting, but completely integrated. — 15 days ago

8.9

More than 2 years since the last bottle in the case. On opening tasted rich, with tea and maybe a hint of balsamic, some oaky fruit. But after an hour and a half in the decanter, and with steaks and mushroomes and veg, it came across as a lot of graphite and earth and dark black fruit. Very good , though not a stunner. — a month ago

9.1

Very sour cherry up front, leather and earth. Decent tannins with enough structure to hold up to a salty entrecôte and add interest but not overwhelm. — 16 days ago

Soft, light cherry, but if earth, very light extraction but very flavourful. Drinks older than it is. — 18 days ago

Raun Kupiec

8.8

Very unusual. Starts with a hint of sweetness but ends unlike any passito. Tangy, stony, not tannic particularly but “grape-skin”-like. Just a bit odd. — 18 days ago

9.3

I love this wine, for me it hits all the notes, balanced, acidity, fruit, depth, interesting tannins that can hold up to salty food. Would like to try this vintage in a few years. — a month ago
