Tannic and dark berry aroma. Having dinner with my brother who I don't see very often since he lives in Bangkok! Just a nice relaxing evening!

Little fruit remains - graphite and iodine dominate despite smooth tannins ... Will try again in future

Dec 24th, 2014Very modern in style, but not overdone. Good fruit and ripe tannins. Not very complex but nice claret bottle indeed.

Aug 4th, 2023Dark, blackish robe, nose of asphalt, black cherries, anise and flowers. Medium bodied and rich but not overdone. Lots of Merlot here but good share of Cabernet too, like 60/40 I guess. Very classical in style and most pleasant, we liked it a great deal.
