Score 91/100 · Drink 2003-2017, Robert Parker, Jan 2003
Aromas of apricots, peaches, honeysuckle, lanolin, and candle wax emerge from the glass of this smoky, medium to full-bodied, fleshy 1999. Having put on considerable weight in the bottle, it is pure, with good acidity, and appears to be on a fast evolutionary track. Anticipated maturity: now-2017. Last tasted, 1/03.
