Saturday, May 21, 2005 - The Mother of All Cult-Cab Tastings 2001 (TMOACCT) (Seattle, WA): Wow, this is stunning with supremely nuanced and complex aromatics already. The nose is smoky showing charcoal and cassis with sweet notes interplaying beautifully with earthy notes. The palate is dark and brooding, liqueur-like, with fantastic structure and nothing overextracted or heavy. This was my highest scored wine of the tasting, although when asked to pick an overall favorite I re-tasted this next to the 2001 Pavie and preferred the Pavie.
