Much more red fruited than normal. Has aromas and flavours of chocolatey, earthy minerally strawberries, redcherries, and blackberries. Its medium bodied structured and compact palate has very good density, decent acidity and structure. Medium long and slightly astringent finish. Drink up in the next couple of years. Great with rare rack of lamb.

Way overpaid for this($40), but it seemed like the perfect choice for tonight. Almost as good as the '01 and '02, might need another year or two to get there. Old world delicacy. Best with food, of course. DeLovely.

Candy red. Dark berries on the nose with some dark chocolate. Thin mouth feel and short finish. Disappointing
