Post by Rune EG »

Decanted 5.5 hrs. Dark red colour. Pleasant intense aroma of fruit and oak. Medium body. Powerful at start, quite smooth, then oak, terroir and fruit (especially blackcurrant). Nice structure. Very dry towards the end. Medium length aftertaste. This vintage of Mouchao needs more cellar time, although I doubt it will reach the level of 2003 and 2005. 91 pts.
