Tart red fruit & tons of secondary - soy, leather, cigar box & dry earth. Beautiful! — 10 years ago
T'as raison Stef, la grand cru est meilleure. Un soupçon artisanale, une belle couleur dorée, un bon goût fruité et une belle mousse abondante. Elle titre à 9.5, ça ne se sent pas trop sur le coup, mais finalement ça tape quand même — 11 years ago
Bière brune qui titre à 9.2. Mousse abondante, et petit arrière goût de caramel boisé. Pour moi, une de mes brunes favorites — 11 years ago
Mouton Vertical dinner. Wow! One of my dream wines to try. This btl came from the cellars of Mahler-Besse collection and was in perfect condition. Ruby red color, sweet ripe red fruits on the nose with eucalyptus, cassis, chocolate mint and exotic spices, had this cola thing going on with soy and caramel. So big, rich, opulent, sexy and young but fully mature. What can I say just a perfect wine in every way! — 11 years ago

This is pure enjoyment and concentration of beer. Makes you think that sometimes life just doesn't get much better and delicious than this. It is pure and refine, with delicious nuances and complexity and finess. 93 pts. — 13 years ago

Can't believe I've never had this! — 11 years ago
Amazing stuff, funky, aged cheese aromas with some air contact turning to black tea, mushroom, soy sauce, dirt.
Savory, sophisticated, elegant, herby, earthy palate.
I would love this with some nice herb rubbed roasted lamb. — 11 years ago
A lovely DRC in the twilight of its drinking years. Upon opening we thought it would fall into the bitter tobacco and soy sauce category but it fell off the knife edge the other way and gave lovely rhubarb, tea notes and sweet tobacco. What a great experience. — 11 years ago
Burnt matchsticks, firewood, soy sauce and bamboo shoots, dark rich fruit. Showing fruit way ahead of tannins that have completely settled. Brilliant wine. Off-vintage. Don't care. Top quality producer wins every time — 13 years ago

Latest release. Bretty and funky and fruity and full of coriander. Refreshing and tasty, but definitely not for the Brett averse. — 10 years ago
