2002 Escudo Rojo

[winophite]

Ive been looking for another Chilean Rothchild wine a cab sav called "los cavos" (or something like that) a friend once brought to share but havn't found it. It was way less expensive. While I enjoyed this one, the price was a bit steep, it was aged already so maybe as IK said it was OK. Is the earthyness a general trait for CS?
Also I see notes on the PN thread that refer to earthyness a lot. Can I expect this in a bottle of French PN from Bourgogne by Louis Jadot 2005, and should I sit on this for a couple more years?
Thanks for your thoughts. WP
