Pretty nose. Blackcurrant, blueberry, cherry jello, leather, pencil lead and violet. Bright acidity. Earthy, dry rustic finish. Not much complexity. Should have been consumed years ago. Fading. 13.5% alcohol.

Blind Night - Kevin Stoddard's (Kevin Stoddard's house): Black currants. Fresh and vibrant. Acidity. Dry, earthy, dusty. Strawberries.

Held together much more nicely than another 2000 Cotes du Rhone recently consumed. Probably well past prime but enjoyable. 82-84

Good but a little past its drinkability time. Will try the 2003...

Last bottle of a case. The nose is now just about gone. Still drinkable. The fruit of its youth is now quite muted.
