A narrowly constructed effort with an abundance of firm tannin as well as herbaceous, damp earthy notes, and notions of red and black currant fruit, the 2002 possesses decent acidity and an austere personality. Drink it over the next decade.
Blackberry and chocolate with hints of toasted oak. Medium-bodied, with good tannins and a medium, fruity finish. Not quite as impressive as the 2001, but well done.
Rene Gabriel rates this wine 18/20 points.
