Aromas of plums, berries and lemon rind. Medium body, firm tannins, good fruit and a fresh finish. A little lean but delicious. Drink now.

Although the color is good, this 2013 is lean, austere and one-dimensional.

Dunkles Rubingranat, violette Reflexe, zarter Wasserrand, feine rote Waldbeernoten, zart mit Erdbeeren und Kirschen unterlegt, etwas Nougat. Leichtfüßig, rotbeerig, zarte Kirschen, lebendig strukturiert, zitroniger Touch, salziger Nachhall, trinkfreudiger Stil.

par Antonio Galloni le 23/04/2014

Red fruit, tobacco, flowers, mint and spices struggle to emerge from a wall of imposing tannin in the 2013 Marsau. Today the 2013 is compact and not particularly generous.

Juicy fruit but rather tart and drying on the finish. Severe.

A serious finish on this for the vintage, with licorice, dark-chocolate and dark-fruit character. Medium body, silky tannins and a fresh finish.

Well-focused, featuring good plum and red currant fruit lined with a hint of bergamot. Modest apple wood toast is inlaid pleasantly on the finish. —J.M.
