Not bad, but not all that great either. Still quite tight and so wait a couple years before the next one. The 2001 is a good wine and it is still young right now.

Slightly spicy nose with clear oak, currants and slight caramel. A bit of sweetness and sour oak with a prickle and heat. Light body, a bit of tar and dark fruits. Not much finish. Really didn't deliver much and several follow-ups didn't dispute this.

Ripe, stewed nose shows VA and heat. On the palate, this just doesnt have the layers it should, shows one dimensional and uninteresting.
