Score 90/100 · Drink 2007-2017, Robert Parker, Jun 2004
Perhaps the finest wine I have ever tasted from Boyd-Cantenac (time will tell if the 2003 is superior), this deep ruby/purple-colored 2001 exhibits sweet, seriously endowed flavors of licorice, black currants, earth, and spice box. Medium-bodied and elegant yet intensely flavorful, it reveals more depth, texture, and persistence than any of its predecessors. There is also some tannin to be shed. Bravo! Anticipated maturity: 2007-2017.
