From magnum. Quite dirty and wild on the nose - notes of barnyard, spices, cherries, smoked meat, volatile acidity. On the palate spicy, smoky, a little drying, sharp acidity. Medium length. Drink up. 87-89

Possibly off; possibly too old? Weird nose - very vegetal, but the palate was full of dark fruits and settled with strong acidity. I enjoyed it, but certainly not a stand-out.

I think my bottle did better than some others. No flaws, and mostly tertiary flavors. Find this to be rich, dark and full. Cheers!

深紫红色,闻香有brett的动物皮毛味,胡椒,淡淡青味,紫罗兰以及黑果李子一类果香,入口酸度高,单宁紧致,细腻,黑果香气融合了话梅一样酸咸的口感,收口回甘,能感受到橡木桶的影响,一点点酒精感,余味是黑色水果,紫罗兰和香草味。口中话梅一样的咸鲜感,让我想起了 Domaine Leon Barral Faugeres Valiniere。很难想象这是一支2002年的酒,酸度漂亮,果香愉悦,没有丝毫的老态。

No rating. This is way past prime, maderized, undrinkable. Bottle cellared since release so not a storage issue.
