This wine is still very young, tight and firm, it needs more time and I am happy I have at least one more bottle to follow on in 2022. A deep garnet color, a lovely nose, full of coffee, leather, earthiness, animalistic notes, cherries and so many more lairs of dry leaves , dry spices and tobacco notes, full body, with firm dry tannins, notes of smoky oak and lots of animalistic flavors, long dry yet tasty finish My score 91, drink to 2023 or even longer.

Stunning. Elegant. Speechless. Would never have guessed the vintage. No signs of age. Wine of the night by far.

Really nice. Well balanced and super expressive. Full bodied with silky tannins. This wine has aged beautifully.

Very pure nose of red fruits, tobacco and leather on the palate, this wine is built on acidity but still well balanced. Not showing any signs of age, this will last for ages!

Needed half an hour to mellow out. Great color. Earthy flavors with strong tannins. Powerful
