Had this as part of a tasting with a 2004 of the same wine. This wine definitely shows more youth, and is perhaps a bit tightly wound at the moment. Good fruit, highlighted by black plums and black berries, with a hint of cocoa coming through on the finish. Tannins aren't harsh, but still somewhat awkward and needs a couple more years to fully integrate. Pretty nice grape juice, but in this tasting I prefer the 2004.
