Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Strange on the nose, with tobacco, green bean and coffee. While it has the size, it lacks character and composition. And the pickled aftertaste does it no favors.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Browning, with unmistakable paint and lacquer aromas. Already thinning out, with staunch acids and tannins making for a hard ride. Not much on display, and from a standout vintage.

Expert NoteJanuary 12, 2012
Spiky hard and downright traditional, but still attractive in a modern way. The nose offers roasted fruit, cinnamon and herbs, and the taste profile follows suit. Along the way come notes of mocha, coffee and milk chocolate. If there’s a pitfall, it’s that it hits like a jackhammer on the palate. Begs for food.
