Very special experience. Still some black and red fruit flavours left and completely integrated tanins. Loads and loads of tertiary flavours like cacao, earth, leather, ceder, coffee...Showing off with a very longlasting finnish and notes of liquorice and smoke on the endpalate. Impressive. — 7 years ago

En australiensisk modern legend. Väldigt aromatisk med blommor, vinbärsbuske, kryddor och eukalyptus. I munnen finns fina fattoner i form av ceder och kaffe men som fräschas upp av krossade bär och nästan lite juicig munkänsla. Kraftfullt men lättdrucket. — 7 years ago

Pretty deep ruby /garnet core , lightening though not a lot at the edges , very big thick slow legs. Certainly secondary aromas now, ceder , licorice , blackcurrant with a meaty undertone , quite interesting and complex . In the mouth more of the blackcurrant fruit, minty notes also , then the tannins kick in. They are ripe but omnipresent , almost a cocoa powder finish with the drying tannins. The mid palate is slightly hollow and lacks a bit of charm. This is a big wine though the acidity is balancing I'm not sure those tannins will ever be resolved. It doesn't come as 'new world' you would think it could be a left bank Bordeaux , a St Estephe perhaps, though the sweeter tannins and slightly alcoholic kick give away another origin. Coming back to this , I think there will probably be limited upside , the wine appear too hollow to really improve. So drink now and over the next 3 years . — 8 years ago

Berry Bros own vintage. They are the oldest distributer in London (possibly the world) dating back to 1698. This Chateauneuf-du-Pape is very delightful! Very soft tannin, pronounced and full body, with dark cherry, ceder, and white pepper characteristics. — 12 years ago

Aromatisk! Rooibos, svamp, plommon, läder och mörka bär. Smaken är ännu ung men väldigt potent. Bigarråer, ceder, nougat, viol, örter m.m. Väldigt bra balans mellan frukt, syra, tanin och fat. — 7 years ago

Djup och fyllig doft. Finns massa frukt kvar. Smaken har svarta vinbär, svart te, ceder och blyerts. Tanninerna är helt nedslipade och trots att vinet är kraftfullt är det silkeslent. Bordeaux precis så man vill ha den. Ett par år till och den här kanske skulle dalat. — 7 years ago

Faustino I from 1994, leather, dried dark fruit, instant coffee and bayleaf on the nose. Full bodied on the palate with vanilla, ceder and herbal raisins. Really smooth for a Rioja with great complexity. Amazing stuff! — 7 years ago

Light tawny colored. Beautifully layered and intense aromas of cranberry, roses, ceder, mushrooms and forest. Feels a little bit like waking up hungover, the tannins and dryness makes for good pairing oppurtunities. Some bitternes evolving om the finish. I would save for 5+ years. — 8 years ago

Muratie Ansela Van De Caab. En liten kärleksförklaring. Sista flaskan, jag kommer fortfarande ihåg 1:a för ca 3,5 år sedan. Doften är stor, mörka bär, kaffe, ceder, blå plommon. Lika härlig som jag minns de andra flaskorna. Smaken är stor, fyllig, svarta vinbär, plommon. Tanniner o syra i perfekt balans. Detta blir inte bättre. Det är nästan sorgligt, när jag förstår att vi inte ses igen. Du har varit så jäkla bra, aldrig svikit. Nu letar vi efter yngre förmågor. — 11 years ago

Sluten jävel även om han öppnade upp sig en aning efter några timmar på karaff. Ceder, tobak, läder är vad man kommer minnas av denna. Har mer att ge. — 7 years ago

Put a bunch of these in the cellar; drinkable now but lots of potential. Dark and red fruits, sweet spices, pepper, some fleshiness, ceder notes, some tight teeth-coating tannins and a long satisfying finish — 7 years ago

Drinking beautifully. Nose full of cassis, deep raspberry, ceder and cocoa, soft and almost fully integrated tannins, hint of mushroom and clay on the palate, still with zippy acidity, medium finish. I wouldn't caller for more than a couple more years. — 9 years ago

Ruby red lightly colored like last week's Volnay; elegantly perfumed nose of red fruits like straw- and raspberries and some lingonberries, spices and fresh cut ceder wood; quite light but round and delicious around the palate, very fine tannins, and a high acid - dominated finish. Delicious! — 10 years ago
