Score 94/100 · Drink 2004-2009, Robert Parker, Oct 2004
The 2001 Esprit, a sensational unfined/unfiltered blend of 66% Shiraz, 14% Cinsault, 10% Grenache, and 10% Mourvedre, is a full-throttle, layered, heady red boasting kirsch liqueur, blackberry, pepper, smoke, and dried Provencal herb characteristics. Its full-bodied opulence is both hedonistically and intellectually satisfying. Enjoy it over the next 4-5 years. Importer: Kysela Pere et Fils, Winchester, VA; tel (540) 722-9228
