notes from ultra-premium tasting of mostly cab blends

[newsguy]

i just updated the price on the '01 grange. realized that i had looked up the price of the '98 grange instead (which i am fortunate to have a bottle of, awaiting to open at my brother's 50th birthday dinner on 12/31/07). luckily, that price did not appear in the paper.

drew: the flavors were actually very good, and the bottling was a classy wine, but the fruit was just as what was expected for the wine, not remarkable. i think, numbers-wise, i gave the wine a score of 88, which is pretty good for an opus from a non-stellar vintage.
