Community Tasting Note

    January 5, 2007 - Had this bottle after drinking some of the 2002 over the holidays. The 01 os very different from that vintage. The nose held apple and pear, spices and flint. The palatte had initial white fruits but mid-palette was steely, flinty and minerallly, not unlike a chablis. In fact, I'd call the 01 reminiscent of a Chablis while the 02 was more Montrachet like (fuller and more viscous). While I think the 02 has several years left, I plan on drinking the 01 over the next year. I don't think it will be as long-lived as the 02, 03 or 04 from Forman. That's not to say I did not like it. Serve it with a hard cheese course or with shellfish and you'll have a marriage made in heaven. Overall. I'd give it a 90.
