WTN: 2000 Edmunds St. John Los Robles Viejos Rozet Vineyard

Really outstanding. This is what I wish CdP could be like from time to time (or other Cali Rhone blends). So layered and nuanced, seamlessly combining red and dark fruits, developed leathery elements, herbs and savoury earth into a single polished whole. There's still plenty of bright primary fruit and a bit of tannin suggesting this should continue to age for some time ahead for this, but it's so well balanced and enjoyable right now that I have no issues about opening my only bottle. Brilliant wine. Thanks Steve.

Thanks for taking one for the team. I have not opened any of the 2000 LRV in several years. Drank all my original bottles in about a year back many moons ago.
