Post by Rune EG »

Last bottle of a case purchased 5 years ago. Decanted 3 hrs. Deep dark purple colour. Powerful, rich and inviting aroma of oak, minerals and herbs. Full body. Powerful and elegant taste with a wonderful combination of fruit/minerals/oak. All well-structured and well-integrated. Long, rich aftertaste. One point up from previous bottles. 95 pts.

Wow! Nice! I've always liked that wine. I'm glad it's aging well.
