Musty, old-suitcase, EA. Similar to the other bottle of the same from tonight.

Killer! Textbook G.C.C. In a great evolutionary spot with a notably long, expansive, finish.

A little tight could take a few more years in the bottle. #cabernetsauvignon #bordeaux #cos #wineporn #FWC

So good. Super second my ass. This wine is so delicious year in and out regardless of vintage. A total bargain compared to its thieving neighbors

2001 is still young on this gem. Eucalyptus, blackberries and cassis on nose. Dark bing cherry and toasted cocoa nibs on mid palate. Finish with dry elegance with slight cinnamon spice in end.
