BJ's rule of 15 works again. Understated, elegant and complex, layering together red fruits, black olives, smoked meat and herbal/tobacco leaf notes. Drinking superbly now with the tannin surprisingly gentle, bright acids beneath the fruit and a long, savoury finish.

I think that the 97s may be more forward than most vintages. I'm not planning to look at my 99s and 01s for some time yet and they could well outlast me.
