| 3.8 | Aroma | Appearance | Flavor | Palate | Overall | | 8/10 | 4/5 | 7/10 | 3/5 | 16/20 | Jun 18, 2007 2005 - Very beautiful deep red body, very creamy beige head; Medium sized very settled well composed nose; Velvety textured body with velvety soft carbonation, sweet, bitter and warm; Long elegant balanced finish, soft in beginning, warming with length. Very drinkable, exactly what I needed on the first Danish hot summer day. I think it lacks a bit over power in every aspect to be a top contender, though. TChrome (1302), Bedford, Texas, USA
