Took a while to open up. Very spicy with baked plums and a bit of tapenade on the nose. Still plenty of tannin but fruit starting to fade. Drink now. Preferably with me.

Every vintage I’ve had has been spectacular. The cork looked 2 years old. The wine was still tart and the tannins had softened and smoothed out. We had this elk and that paring worked very well. A delight in every way.

At NoMad, super yummy! The viscosity changed the more it opened. Enjoyed much more than the 1998 consumed at L'Artusi

Tart saccharine berries, ripe stone fruits, thyme, black pepper, tar. Quite stylish with a structural elegance in a class of its own. Long, happy ending.
