the color is already showing a serious brown edge, and the wine is fully mature and ready to drink. the nose is interesting, with aromas of licorice, apricot and violets. on the palate it proves to be quite soft, and the flavors are more muted than the nose seemed to have promised. for a 2001, it should have a little more stuffing, but it is still a pleasant wine.
