Still quite tannic and a bit rough, so the score may edge up with another year or two in the bottle. But even now the wine has good blackberry/blueberry flavors along with red licorice, green peppercorns, and toasted barrel notes. It will be interesting to see how this wine evolves. - WB Team 2001-10-26
