Väldigt ljus i färgen. Behöver luft, men sakta men säkert öppnar den upp sig. Apelsinskal, mogen frukt, pinje, mineral. Går verkligen att dricka än och sjukt nog säkerligen flera år framöver. Imponerande.

The oldest wine I’ve ever had and while I wouldn’t say I loved it, it was a fantastic drinking experience. Rust colored and bursting with smells of shoe leather, but the taste is an even swirl of caramel, tangy game and anise (especially paired with dark chocolate).

Nypon, mossa, lite nagellack. Vackert tegelfärgad. Läder, sval frukt, röda bär, salt mineral och integrerad ek. Har mycket liv kvar. Eleganta smeksamma tanniner.

Pure bliss. Nose of decayed forest floor and mushrooms. Surprisingly herbaceous and citrusy, believe it or not, on the palate. Makes a wine collection all worth it.

In a great place now, but a baby compared to the '47.

1958. Brown paper bag on the nose that's kinda overpowering the beauty of this wine. Still many years left in this one. Cherry, caramel, chocolate, dried mushrooms. Great bottle for sure, if you take away the paper .:)
