The 2001 Madrona Ranch is a powerful, brooding wine. Savory herbs, scorched earth, licorice, menthol, plum and black cherry. Young, deep and wonderfully deep, the 2001 is a total rock star. Dark red cherry, plum, mocha and gravel build as this explosive 2001 opens with some coaxing. The young Madrona Ranch tannins that were once present have softened. I expect the 2001 will drink well for another decade or so.
