Impressive wine, horrible pouring job (I never claimed to be a sommelier).

I probably shouldn't rate wines that were made by my current employer but this is delicious and holding up so well, I simply couldn't help it.

Tasted March 2020. Had a little aged funk so I think this wine was past its prime. It still had deep complex fruit and was well made. Not for everyone, but good marks. 88

Nice wine. 2001 vintage - nicely aged. Tannins are softened. Black cherry, cassis, dried fruit...
