". . . Lovely undergrowth scents infusing the black fruit, a tang of brine/kelp and oyster shell, translating the terroir far better than the 2001 served alongside. The palate is medium-bodied with cranberry and raspberry fruit laced with white pepper and brown spices. I like the symmetry here and it feels less aloof than some other 1996s recently tasted. Excellent."
