This one was a bit more what people expected - and liked by everyone at the table. Again a deep purple color, and a nose of pepper, dark fruits, and tobacco. The mouth is much smooth, balanced and really a nice fullness, that gives this full bodied wine a good showing. The mouth gives way to a fair amount of dark fruit, and then again to a long and peppery finish. Showing well, but drink up

The mouth feel is strong and the fruit is still forward. Was looking for more pepper - but there was enough. Was equally good the next day. The 2001 and 2003 are better - but a fine wine in its own right.

Opened with unique graham-cracker cinnamon/allspice nose, these giving way to stewed plums and a bit of smoke and white pepper. Medium smoky finish.
