Last chance purchase at the state monopoly store. No telling how it had been stored. Undrinkable. Fizzy, thin, lacking structure or much taste. Would have been better off tossing a $20 bill off a bridge and making a wish. If scoring <70.

Looks like it is soon to be last chance to get something good out of the Torbreck Cuveé Juveniles. Have tasted it a couple of years ago with more power and longer finish. It still gives a good light/medium body experience which is nice too drink (in the wine cellar) without food. The difference to me would have been if the finish lasted longer than 10 sec. and therefore I can´t give it a higher rating (remembered it as a 89-90 points at its top).

Past its prime. Thin. No tannins.
