  Doesn’t show much age: still bright colored and fresh purple in the glass. Mulberries and cherry compote, some herbal tobacco notes. A lovely mature wine. Guessing that it could hold here for another five years even.

  Wow. Has really mellowed out in the last 2.5 years since my last bottle. Huge nose of earth and black cherry. Still a lot of menthol, tobbaco on the palette. But alla bit more balanced now. Surprisingly good acidity. Went really well with duck cassoulet. Big finish. Lots of earth and dark cherry on the finish. Should last for a while, but don’t hesitate to drink now.

  Drank over two nights. Big and bold, not subtle. Probably best 6 hours after opening

  3910 bottles made, served blind. Minty, mulberry, inky, sweet and juicy. New world style but old world. Ripe vintage around 2000. Rather clueless here. Italian small grape variety? 90

  Nose was very forrest floor, wet earth. A lot of cherry and menthol. Still tasting young, expecting this will hold up for a while. I rather like it, but I can see how this wine is not for everyone. It’s about as subtle as a punch to the face.
