On the nose, posh leather and ripe black fruits stand out. On the mouth, it is sweet and rounded. Good finish. The wine has evolved and it's easy to drink but it still has many years ahead of it. It got better towards the end and managed to hold the drinkers' interest throughout the meal. — 8 years ago

This marvelous bottle became the centerpiece of our meal on Saturday night at this posh, rather over-embellished Italian restaurant (one star Michelin) whose heavy sauces cried out for a strong foil that could offset their intense richness--#Keller to the rescue once again--this vibrant, mineral-driven 2013 #KIRCHSPIEL, aided by decanting, saved an otherwise lackluster experience--BRAVO! — 9 years ago

This is still a baby. Tar, smoke, dark rich fruit and loads of body with killer finish that lasts forever. Awesome wine. It's amazing how different this wine is to it's posh sibling next door Haut Brion. Both equally unique and fantastic. — 10 years ago

This is effing delicious. Day 1: Heady on the nose, layers of raspberry/strawberry confiture, mulberry, sous bois, lavender, roasted fig, sweet spices, potpourri and rocks. Palate is so dense, layer upon layer of berries, garrigue, spices, mocha, licorice, black minerals, and crushed flowers. Like drinking velvet, opulent and sexy, crazy long finish. Day 2: the textural richness of this wines grew with air. Even more richness and posh on the palate. Nose unraveled, aromas of animal, leather, savory earth, sarsaparilla, and rich umami accents popped up. On the palate the wine shed some of its alcoholic edge and began to express those rich notes of coffee, cocoa, leather, and the deep layers of fruit grew. A purely hedonistic experience for S. Rhône drinkers. — 8 years ago

I am predisposed not to like this style of wine, but I grudgingly admit I enjoyed this bottle that shouldn't have been opened for another decade. The color was inky dark as expected. The nose was of cassis, blackberry and mint. Surprisingly I got no notes of overblown oak. On the palate the wine was rich and ripe with loads of cassis primarily with hints of chocolate and espresso. The posh velvety fruit would have been sickening except for that it was balanced by excellent acidity. I could have used a bit more tannic structure. In general, I prefer other styles, but for what this is, it is a very good example. I'm surprised to have liked it. — 10 years ago

Chocolate, warm cherries, mocha, patisserie, cream, rubber, coffee, some alcoholic heat. Rich, broad, modern, new oak bitterness. Very luxury and posh and chocolate-y.
