Wednesday, March 20, 2002 - Dark red. Nicely spiced on the nose. The bouquet also revealed notes of mint leaves. Strong in the mouth and slightly more hot than the previous two wines. Quite herbal flavour profile. Most certainly a largely scaled wine, and the impressive size did seem to be balanced out by the fruity, juicy ripeness. One taster noted that the underlying taste was of "old Bordeaux" which I would agree with. Maybe lacking a little bit of class and style, but certainly impressive.
