Sipping Fine Wine

9.0

Deep Ruby red color with aromas of ripe fruits with floral perfume and sweet earthy tones, Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon and Cabernet Franc. On the palate flavors of blackberry and plum fruits, with pepper spice notes. Fine tannins, medium+ finish ending with fruit, floral and earthy spice character. Good now, has short-term aging potential. — a month ago

素晴らしい、あと数年寝かせてもよい。まずはスパイシーな香りブラックペッパー、クローヴ、そしてブラックチェリー、なめし革、タバコ、コーヒー香りが複雑で豊か。
味わいは大きなバランスで、深め。
シルキーよりも少し粒がたつような舌触り。

A little anonymous — maybe over the hill- but tastes like old (good) wine. Still medium acidity — what fruit there is tastes anonymously “red” and like (dried) fig. Thinned out. Some of the stylistic pine. Oldest wine I’ve tried. 90. — 4 months ago

Probably my favorite St. Emillion. First had it at a restaurant in St. Emillion (2006 vintage?) and brought some back home. Had several 2009 vintage bottles since. Love this wine. — a month ago

Raspberry, blackberry, currant, big thick mouthfeel, long finish, tannins for days, but put together…you need something big to eat with this one, and luckily I had just the thing-pigs foot stuffed with sweetbread and foie gras — a month ago

Minerals... Aged red fruit. Beautiful bouquet. This wine has come together nicely and it paired nicely with the beef tenderloin.
