Community Tasting Note

Sunday, March 4, 2012 - Tasting this as I type. 2001 sucked as a vintage in Bordeaux, however the best producers still made lemonade out of lemons! This is throwing lots of sediment, so stand it up for 2-3 hrs before decanting. This wine has held up really well all things considered. On the nose, There is an abundance of toast and tobacco. On the palette, it's smooth. The tannins are perfectly integrated. Plums and cherries tease the senses. Great wine for the vintage. However, not worth the sticker price. Will last another 7-10 years in the cellar. That said, I don't see it improving beyond this point.
