    Justerini & Brooks Tasting note

    Super ripe aromas of prune on the nose, a densely packed palate showing rich plum and berry fruit, very tightly knit tannic structure. This rivals the superb 1999.

    Critic Reviews

    89+/100
    Stephen Tanzer,
    Vinous
    Full ruby. Brooding aromas of cassis, blackberry, gunflint, minerals, licorice and bitter chocolate. Juicy, peppery and dense, with sweetness currently overshadowed by the wine's powerful raw berry character. Finishes with youthfully tough tannins and notes of raw berries and black pepper. Extremely primary, traditionally made Hermitage with considerable aging potential.
