89-92 ST.
"Excellent deep red-ruby color. Bitter cherry and an exotic citrus skin note on the nose. Creamy in the middle and quite suave; as sweet as this is, it's also bright and firm, with very good backbone and grip. The tannins are similarly quite refined, and the finish is subtle but very persistent. Really impeccably balanced." Vinous, May 1996 |
