Written Notes

Château-bottling with very high-shoulder level. Decanted only 15 minutes. Moderately deep brick red colour. Intense floral nose with ripe cassis, leather, cedar and spices. Medium-bodied palate with elegant tannic structure, vivid acidity and freshy minerality combined with very ripe fruitiness. Spices and floral tones are more apparent in aftertaste which remains surprisngly long. Very appealing wine still, no further ageing, was much better 10 years ago, so don´t wait..
