Decanted briefly. This is showing beautifully with full body of well-aged fruit, cooling herbs, tobacco, and supple tannins with good acid. The 2001 is certainly holding up although I'm not sure there's really a reason to age these so long since they are delicious in their youth. Still, old wine for the old year!

This is just great. It has the perfect amount of intensity, weight and density without being too much. Elegantly balanced between its countless layers of concentrated, lush, black fruits, and refinement, the intensely concentrated, wine tastes and feels great as it coats every nook and cranny of your palate.

Fruit jam, chocolate, big structure to back up all the sweetness. Well balanced.

醒酒四个小时,深宝石红色,闻香有雪松,红樱桃一般的香水味,香气非常独特,还能感受到些许烟熏,入口酸度高,酒液咸,收口甜美。雪松,石墨混合着青椒和成熟黑果味,酸度很通透,极具穿透力,后段也能感受到酒精感,风格有点严肃,有一丝偏旧世界,极具辨识度的香气和酸度让它显得如此特别
