This wine is listed on this page on Eric LeVine's CellarTracker!. Eric's starting point for his list was a list of wines emailed to him by Manfred Krankl as Eric explains here on the CellarTracker! Users Forum.

There is also this tasting note on CellarTracker! by eminent wine taster Richard Jennings, who wrote I believe this was the batch that Rudy Kurniawan and Matt Lichtenberg were successful bidders on, and that I tried with Matt in May 2004.

Finally, I received this from Manfred: There was another HDR lot we did [besides 1998]. It was a special 2001 cuvee of 55.5% Grenache, 39% Syrah and 5.5% Mourvedre and we produced 24 Bottles, 15 Magnums and 3 Double Magnums. It was one lot and sold to [one customer] at [the] 2002 HDR auction.
