Spectacular. So much fruit. This came from a passive cellar, the fill was top label, yes I said it top label, and when I touched the cork it fell in! So expectations were low. Wow were we wrong.

This was the night before the la paulee gala. Took a break from burgundy with a 85 versus 02 showdown

First, a person has to pause and realize how lucky they are to drink this wine from 3L. Thanks Clyde for opening. This is in a perfect stage. Such evolution, length, balance, structure. Love the lower 80's alcohol levels. It's rich, lush and near perfect. Dark cassis; ripe and resolved blackberries, dark cherries, black plum w/skin, mixed berry liqueur, tobacco leaf, leather so soft you would wish it as a pillow cover, dry pebbles, dark rich earth, perfect acidity and a rich, elegant, ripe dark fruit finish. In 3L, this wine still has 10-15 years.

Elegant soft with a solid but fading fruit core. Right time right place.
