Another champion vintage that I had forgotten about. The color was bright and intact and the bouquet intense, complex and still youthful with notes recalling the Cabernet, like graphite, dark berries and Alpine underbrush. These were followed by those of cherry and some hints of orange to close the aromatic profile. The mouthfeel was fresh and nervous yet nicely assorted with a very persistent finish. The tannins were excellent, elegantly composed, and the salinity was good.
