Brilliant ruby, fat tears. Restrained dark fruity nose, very velvety, bit cool. Plump body, intense red and dark fruit, massive tannins, bit of fruity acidity, slightly alcoholic. Very long finish, fruity acidity and fine massive tannins. Head spinning alcohol not completely tamed by acidity, would else be a great wine.
Score: 50 + 4 for optic + 13 for bouquet + 18 for taste + 9 for overall = total score of 94.
Remark after disclosure: For the first time the concept of Laurence (same wine as Reservee but longer in cask to mature faster) seems evident to me.
Pegau vertical tasting Graz 20040927. Single blind. Decanted shortly before tasting. Wine Star Chardonnay glass similar to ISO standard tasting glass. Wine #3 in flight #4. Sequence predefined by the organiser of the tasting, not by chance.
