Tasting Notes and Scores
The saturated ruby/plum-tinged 2002 reveals a tight but promising nose of underbrush, new saddle leather, damp earth, black currants and cherries. It is a strongly structured, potent effort with medium to full body, and impressive purity, but loads of tannin presented in a frightfully backward style. Anticipated maturity: 2012-2022. I seem to consistently underrate this wine when it is young.

Bright ruby-red. Aromas of raw currant, kirsch, licorice, mint and chocolate. Sweet, pure flavors of chocolate and black cherry firmed by herbal and peppery nuances and an edge of acidity. Substantial tannins come across as a bit youthfully tough, but the wine finishes with excellent length.
