Smooth, good complexity. Still lively fruit but not in your face

Petrus is a legendary wine - Merlot
Sideways is a hit movie - we quit on Merlot
We age our Cabs, less commonly Merlot
So here is a 2003
Funk overrode it for 15 minutes then....
Sweet pleasure
I really feel I need to explore this grape more being choosy about the producer

2001 vintage - was very fruity at release, but at age 14 this wine is singing. Still a dark garnet color, turning to brick on the meniscus. Flavors are dominated by leather and barnyard with traces traces of plum and maybe some dried violets. Tannins are still present but very soft. Long finish.

Good wine with lots off fruit still. The first bottle was corked. But number two was delightful.
