  OK day 1 and 2
  Amazing day 3 - open 48 hours, smooth, moderate body, tannins silky
  Chocolate, cherry, hint of lime, hint of coffee
  Let this open a long time
  Rating based on 48 hour in open/cork in place bottle

  Slightly cloudy, which seems to be a Kermit Lynch trademark...
  Fairly evolved nose but still very pleasant; little fruit but nice tertiary notes.
  Aromas on spicy side mostly,
  Very soft mouthfeel, light structure. Short finish. Fairly dramatic stylistic change from 2000 vintage and not in a good direction. I expected more...

  Dinner at Home, Mill Valley, CA. From 750ml purchased on release.
  
  Opened and decanted for an hour. Hard as nails until the end of the evening some three hours later. Just beginning to open aromatically, and in need of food on the palate. This wasn't close to approachable. Will see how it is again this evening after a day in the fridge. Will leave my remaining bottles in the cellar for a few more years.

  I agree with the description below in all respects. The wine, however, is still drinking nicely and as described. I will finish my remaining two bottles over the next year or so. I see no urgency.
