Mature looking but with sufficient deep colour to make the age hard to determine. The nose . . . . . chocolate cherry liqueurs(!) and really sweet, almost intoxicating. The palate, still has really good acidity and lots of furry tannin. Tons of depth to the fruit, with the finish continuing to develop for the first hour the bottle was open. Worth much more than the €58 paid – outstanding – and years of life ahead of it.
The wine was mature looking but with sufficient deep colour to make the age hard to determine. The nose . . . . . all chocolate and cherry liqueurs was really sweet, almost intoxicating. The palate, still has really good acidity and lots of smooth, furry tannin. Tons of depth and many layers to the fruit. The superb finish continuing to develop for the first hour the bottle was open. Wine is also about the experience with food; In this case the wine melded beautifully with fresh bread and a simple plate of Livarot, Reblochon (de Suisse !!) and Port Salut cheeses. Worth much more than the €58 paid – outstanding – and many years of life ahead of it.
