About

Rating:

90

"Subtle wood spice and very fresh, bright and clean red pinot fruit aromas merge into very ripe and rich middle weight flavors that surprisingly display a touch of mocha, which is unusual for the '01 vintage. The flavors and tannins though are much finer here than in the previous wines and I particularly like the superior delineation, especially on the racy and long finish. In terms of style, I prefer the race and elegance of the '01 to the concentration and sweetness of the '02 but qualitatively, it's a choice."
