Very nice on the nose with plenty of layers. Sour cherries, black tea, tobacco, tomatoe leaf, rocks, violets. Very tannic and acidic finish. — 3 days ago

2008. Still good in 2024. Excellent with field mushrooms- clavitos in Spish and Steinpilz in German. Hopefully will last even longer! — a month ago

Maturing nicely, this is in the tertiary zone with pronounced dried red fruits, savory spices and roasted meats, with plenty of iron and volcanic soil notes. The tannin have resolved into a fine and elegant structure. Acidity is intact and well integrated. The flavor intensity is high, elegant, and persistent, very light on its feet as it sails into a long, mature finish.

This will pair perfectly with pasta and lighter fowl, gane or meat dishes. Pastas it will excel with red sauces, pestos or any lighter sauces that are savory with garlic and herbs at their core.

Drink now or hold 5 years more. — a month ago

Man, this is a powerhouse. Can’t believe it had 14 year so far age because it still packs a punch, and is very dense and tannic. Leather, cigar box, cherry compote. Very interesting that they don’t harvest til mid-November, probably explains the concentration! — 2 months ago
