Tasting notes

Deep red colour at the core, much browning at the rim. Complex and intence smell. Hints of minerals, roses, leather, cherries. Mature in the mouth. Great structure. High acidity and some tannins in the back. Still much fruit left. Long taste. Great wine.

Deep brick-red colour. Brown rim, but not so wide as the glass I had at the tasting. Complex smell of leather, cherries, minerals, wood and nuts. Good body in the mouth. Very fruity and silky mouthfeel. Great structure. High acidity and mature tannins with just a little bite at the end. Very long taste. Much life in this wine yet. But there is no use in aging it longer. Very good with the food.

Dark brown colour. Very brown. Smell of dust, oxydation, leather. Good body in the mouth. Some oxydation. Too old. Still acidity left, but not much tannin. After two great bottles of this wine the third was gone.
