11/24/16 compared CV and then opened bottle. Interesting. Perhaps some difference due to aeration? Nose of some funk and earth and mushrooms with balanced acidic palate and hints of floral notes lingering through long finish. Better than previous tasting.

Nov 25th, 20169/23/16 CV vertical. 2001: bricked color and a bit oxidized, previously CVed a factor? Nose with sherry. Need to drink up. 8.7. Definitely going downhill. 2003: good nose with earthy tones and receding fruits. Balanced palate and floral finish. 8.9. 2005: still a bit closed off but drinking well. Color most ruby red than others. 9.0. 2006: similar nose as 2003 of receding fruits and earth. Body has more structure and more acidic. Medium finish. 8.9. 2008: more fruit on nose with more floral tones. Very fragrant. Good structure and balance on palate again with more acidity that carries through to medium finish. 8.9. 2009: darker ruby color like the 2005 and hints of barnyard and mintiness mixed with red fruits in the complex nose. Most distinctive of the series. Body again structured and acidic. Medium finish. 8.9. So, need to drink up most of these except for 05 and 09. Opened 2001 and 2003 in Sept. And both were excellent and surprise was 2001 didn't taste at all oxidized. Interesting.
