Do ya'll really think Parker meant to say that the drinking window was 2011-2012? Dead wrong.......

The wine looks Purple colored. The legs are Slow. It smells like Mushroom, Bark, and Lead Pencil. Looked for the cassis, found it but thought it understated not overstated. Does not detract from the wine at all. Probably early, and needs food, but a delightful wine deserving the scores and accolades. Nice finish as well.

I think this wine is a good example of 2000 bordeaux. Dark, brooding almost, yet fruity with balanced tannins. This would be sensational with food like a beef roast. Still has some time ahead of it as well. Bordeaux nose but I get no green pepper. Graphite, lead, forest floor, all of that but no pepper.
