1 person found it helpfulJun 18th, 2016Another bottle I've had since the beginning. Showing really well tonight still lively and bright but full of tannins Deep ruby color and lovely aged Bordeaux aromatics, leather, a little barnyard and sandalwood. Got to look for more of this such a better a value and still holding strong.

Feb 20th, 2020Half bottle. Heady scent of rose petals on open. Dark chocolate, cherry, dusty plum, and graphite. Med-firm tannins. Finish is a bit on the short side. First glass of wine in Amsterdam!

Jan 1st, 2018It was beyond its fully potential time. Took many hours of decant to bring out its taste, wish drink it 10 years prior.
