Strawberry, dark cherry, lengthy finish and relatively firm tannin. Balanced and elegant but incredibly reticent on the nose and that leaves it too evasive for my preferences. (RH)
Broad and intense on the nose but pretty astringent on the palate. Definitely a bit dead and unglamorous. Not a successful 2000. Very disappointing. (JR)
Medium red. Cherry, plum and mineral aromas, along with notes of pepper and spices. Juicy and penetrating, with the best depth of flavor thus far of these 2000s. This seems to be putting on weight in bottle. Smooth and fine on the back end. (ST) 90+
