  "Sattes, dichtes Violett-Purpur mit schwarzen Reflexen. Würziges, fast tintiges Bouquet, Gewürznelken, Rauch, Trüffel und Brombeeren. Kompakter, fester Gaumen, enorme Adstringenz, feinsandige Textur, intensive, forschende Cabernet-Aromatik, ein Gerbstoff-Bulldozer mit mächtigen, bourgeoisen Konturen."

  "This is full of vigour and life – an enjoyable wine from a challenging year. At this stage in its development the cassis notes are merging with tannins, which are starting to soften but haven't forgotten what they're here for. Good balance, with a lovely fresh edge at the close of play as it rises rather than falls, and the menthol notes are very attractive. A slight tightness on the finish tells you that the fruit is a heartbeat away from full ripeness, and although this will age well it lacks some characteristic generosity. The rest of the blend is made up of Petit Verdot."
