12/18/15, 2:16 PM - Same happened to me. I opened one during Thanksgiving week. I bought it on WTSO. The other ones were fine. Undrinkable.
12/19/15, 8:33 AM - I like WTSO. Have been using it for years and obtain most of my wine through them. Great customer service and only a few times have I received flawed bottles. Small percentage given the amount I have purchased.

I have a few of the 2002 but have tried the 2001 a few times and it is superior. They are one of the oldest wine makers in Rioja.
6/20/15, 2:24 PM - DK: I have had a different experience with the 2001 and felt it was superior. Individual bottles and taste often differ. thanks for responding and I was in Copenhagen for two days a few years ago and I loved it. Take care and enjoy your wine.....
6/8/15, 7:11 AM - If you ever have the opportunity to try the 2001, do not hesitate. It is the quintessential Rioja wine. The 2002 is pretty good but that was not a good year for Rioja. 2001 was a great year and this wine is the perfect example of it. Thanks for you note.
4/8/15, 6:00 PM - I also had it with lamb. I made some lamb chops for easter Saturday dinner. I was expecting more given that the 2001 and 2000 are amazing vintages. This is not as good but still nice. If you ever get a chance to try 2001 it is very good.
4/10/15, 11:22 AM - I have trouble describing the difference but all I can say is that if you ever have an opportunity to try the 2001, make sure you do. It is a whole other level of delicious. I see you live in Finland. Not sure the availability but check it out. I have had the 2001 at restaurants in both CHicago and San Diego and not been disappointed. I was in Finland two years ago for a day as our cruise ship spent the day in Helsinki. Lovely city.
11/14/14, 11:04 AM - Just received my shipment yesterday. They had a note saying to wait a few months but from the sounds of it the wine is ready. Love the review and it is going to be difficult to wait after reading it.
11/15/14, 10:44 AM - That is what I suspected and glad to know that is your reputation. Very much appreciate the sacrifice people make to assist others.
4/17/13, 5:25 PM - love you ability to put into words this wine that I love. Great job. I have not opened up one in about two years but will soon.
12/10/12, 7:03 PM - Dear REDMAN77 - on 10/24/10 you loved the wine after a FOUR hour decant. Follow your own advice. "I must read my past tasting notes" "I must read my past tasting notes" "I must read my past tasting notes" "I must read my past tasting notes" "I must read my past tasting notes" "I must read my past tasting notes"It is a great wine and is not an impulse PNP.
