Leather and vanilla on the nose, plum vanilla taste, long finish

The wine is almost ready to drink. The nose is dominated by its (very long) upbringing: lots of leather, overwhelming the red and black fruit. It’s as if the barrels absorbed some of the wine’s fruit and substance. Nevertheless, the wine is very enjoyable. It is medium bodied, retaining some fine tannins and matches perfectly with the grilled lamb chops. 90/100.

This wine is full of aromas of spices and tobacco. Tannins are pleasant, balanced and well composed on tongue. The effect is quite spectacular. I regret I opened this bottle. It's from 2012, so there still was a time for this wine.

Wonderful scent of nectar, smooth finish, licorice overtones, hint of terra. Gets better as it breathes ...
