"Another great showing for this stellar wine. The purity of fruit stands out here. There is still freshness, silky textures and layers of sweet, ripe cherries that are complicated by the wet earth, floral and tobacco nuances. If you find a well-stored example, this is worth taking a chance on." Jeff Leve, The Wine Cellar Insider, Sep 8, 2018
Provenance: The Vegas Cellar
Notes: Mid shoulder, lightly corroded, scuffed, lightly wine stained, partially exposing top of cork, scuffed, damp stained, mold stained, bin soiled, heavily torn label.
