Tasting Notes

Vinous Stephen Tanzer - 01 Jan 01
Saturated ruby-purple. Superripe aromas of blackberry liqueur, crushed blueberry, bitter chocolate, animal fur and pepper, along with a leafy, vegetal suggestion of very young syrah. Huge but rather monolithic, even austere. Today the tannins come across as rather tough. This is showing little today beyond its spectacular aromas, but it is hard to believe that it won't ultimately match the Chaillot.
