Saturday, October 5, 2013 - Bordeaux 2001 Blind Tasting (+ two 2000s): Dark Bdx-Red. In the nose, this is very compact, almos monolithic. There's cassis, pencil shavings, it's rather dark in total, but has beautiful light undertones. Textbook Cabernet nose. On the palate, it's dark fruited, but with light undertones again (red and black currant), stony, mineralic. Very long finish. Still a bit young, but already so unbelievably good.
