91 AM. Big, rich, slightly oaky, intensely mouth coating and ever so slightly honeyed with a trace of finishing sweetness. This is quite juicy, almost friendly in style with rounded, thick, dense, concentrated flavors and a lovely fruit/acid balance that beautifully buffers the moderate fat and extract. Pretty rather than profound yet it retains a clear sense of refinement and breed. Allen Meadows, April 01, 2003 |
