“On their first encounter, SBS and Nobilis are very much toe to toe. Nose goes to Nobilis for a little more openness and complexity. SBS takes the palate with (comparably) less wood/bitterness which leaves more room for some dried red fruits, which I don’t really find in the Nobilis very much - on my first try at least 🤔 Both very nice REVs, if you do enjoy this kind of dark and bitter profile.”

“Exciting extension of the REV saga - the corresponding DNA is recognizable, but it is quite clearly not up to the 94 vintage for me. The nose still convinces me a good deal more than the taste experience in the mouth, where unfortunately the alcohol remains a bit too present. Compared to other 2006 REVs on the milder side, more balanced, perhaps also thanks to the somewhat shorter storage time - other releases already show significantly more bitterness (Nobilis) or smoke (Romdeluxe). Slight deductions for the in my opinion somewhat too clear alcohol sharpness.”

“Update: I like increasingly worse. In the mouth quite one-dimensional and thin. -2Original:Rusty along with the SBS 2006, the first RA 2004 and the second RA 1994 - the latter dances a bit out of line. If the 2006 is a REV, then so are the 2004 MDXC. There are differences, but are as great between the 2004 bottlings as compared to the 2006.This bottling is the most drinkable of the four, the powerful that also so characterized the first RA 1994 takes a back seat even further here, the prune playing full out. The nose is softer and more restrained than the 2004s. In the mouth, a sweetness is present that neither the 2004s nor the 1994s bring. Despite the darker color, the sweetness is more reminiscent of molasses and candied fruit than burnt caramel.”
