...impeccably well-made by a driven proprietor...sweet aromas of black currants, espresso roast, chocolate, and new oak. Textured and medium-bodied, with excellent purity as well as a long, concentrated, expansive mid-palate and finish, this elegant, pure 2001 is best drunk over the next 7-8 years.

...Complex aromas of redcurrant, cedar, leather and game. Broad, rich and dry, with an almost candied ripeness but lovely clarity of flavor. Finishes with suave, horizontal tannins. This has turned out very well.

Hints at weediness on the nose, with otherwise well-ripened cassis joining with notes of caramel and graham crackers. Rather earthy and tobacco-driven on the palate, finishing with soft, relatively modest tannins.
