Community Tasting Note

Wednesday, November 25, 2009 - I have no idea what Keith was drinking, but it was not this! While it certainly was not old school (though I would claim the very good nose came close), it certainly had a bucketload of character, structure and taste, especially for a 2001. It is drinking well now, though needing a good decant and will certainly improve with a number of additional years in bottle. Reasonably restrained fruit, with notes of leather and cedar and a bit of spice I could not mail down. Something to jump up and down and get excited about? No. But neither is it this monstrosity that some seem to see hidden in the label that they despise. Perhaps bottle variation? Who knows, but this will remain on my drinking list as a decent 01 to enjoy.
