96 / 100 Falstaff Magazin
1953 Vintage Tasted: Nov 2009
Mittleres Rubingranat mit orangefarbenen Reflexen und breiterer Randaufhellung. In der Nase sü?e Frucht, nach D?rrobst, dunkles Konfit, zart balsamisch-trüffelige Nuancen, nach Lakritze und Minze, facettenreich und einladend. Am Gaumen sehr finessenreich, hochelegante Textur, feines, durchaus rassiges S?urespiel, die Aromatik voll von Nuancen nach kandierten Orangen, Schokolade, exotische Gewürze, voll ausgereifte Tannine, hat echten Tiefgang und Charisma, im Finish Noten von Herzkirschen, angenehme Noten von Trüffeln und Kr?uterwürze, sehr überzeugende L?nge, jetzt auf einem echten Altersh?hepunkt. Ein gro?er Wein, aus der Einzelflasche vielleicht schon einen Schritt über dem Zenit.
