Still crushing it after all these years. Been drinking this bottle since release of 02's and has been fun to watch mature. First (slight) signs of oxidation starting to show, many more years ahead for this great bottle

Citrus / lemon nose and palate. Medium plus acidity, full body, resinous/mouth coating with a lasting salty mineral rock finish. Awesome wine and even more so at nearly 17 years old!

Lemon, candle wax, with a nutty finish. Slightly oxidized. Good acid. Wonderful stuff.
