Sunday, January 1, 2023 - Lunch at Triple Crown (Chicago, IL): #07-02. Dee Vee Wines bottle. This felt a little advanced to me, especially in comparison to other 2001s I've had. I think it's generally true that Schaefer whiffed the vintage a bit, and while this is definitely a nice wine, it definitely doesn't live up to my hypothetical excitement of the confluence of Schaefer, 2001, and auction. Slightly browning with a creamy peach note; this doesn't have quite the acid-driven freshness that I would have expected. Somewhat sedate and rounded.
