95 RP. "A provocative, powerful-scented nose of jammy, super-ripe fruit, herbs, and underbrush is an immediate attention-grabber. The color remains impressively dark ruby/garnet. In the mouth, there is a spectacular display of jammy, rich fruit, moderate tannins, and a voluptuous, opulent texture. There is almost a roasted quality about this wine, suggesting that the grapes were picked at extremely high sugar levels. Glorious . . ." Wine Advocate # 80, Apr 1992 |
