This is how I feel today. Hazy and out of focus. Really liked this. Modern style but laser like focus. Both '01s showed very well.

Meeting with an old friend, this has still wonderful tobacco and leather on first taste, nose is still clean. Medium bodies, but very long, this is very enjoyable, even if the colour is slightly opaque.

A modern day legend, fantastic wine! Beautiful fruit of interwoven with smoke and leather, exactly how great Claret should taste!

Dirty and nasty on the nose barnyard and dirty soft fruit still prevalent. Can you say funk and mushroom... wow this is a changeup from the California night we are enjoying! What a change up

Good bottle from perfect provenance. Tannins were sharp but pretty nice, wine was a little short. Lack of personality.
