A nice bottle now, but I have to think this might have been an awkward mess when younger. On the nose, bitter chocolate and a sweet green note something like vetiver. The green carries to the palate, where it is nicely in the background with well balanced fruit and cassis taking the lead. Medium bodied and a fair amount of acidity -a good, perhaps vey good food wine. Pleasantly surprised by this bottle given the general lack of regard for the '00 vintage v

Extremely well balanced. Round. Cherry/Earthy nose moderately prominent with good fruit on initial taste.
