Tasting Note: |
Wine Advocate #122 (4/1999) Rating: 80 points Drink:2000-2010
This is a mainstream, oaky, soft, fruity wine without much depth or length. It is open-knit, with dried herb and black currant fruit in its moderately intense aromatics. The short finish reveals no hard edges. Drink it over the next 7-8 years. -Robert Parker
Wine Spectator (1/1/2007) Score:88
Exotic aromas of blackberry, tangerine and Indian spice. Full-bodied, silky and refined. Gorgeous. Little short.--'95/'96 Bordeaux retrospective. Drink now. 20,000 cases made. –JS
