...profoundly complex nose of minerals, ripe cassis fruit, cedar, chocolate, and subtle herbs. Full-bodied yet silky, with layers of concentrated, highly extracted fruit, this wine is exceptionally well-balanced, beautifully pure...
Offers a world of flavor, complex and well focused; a rich, concentrated band of cherry, currant, mineral and spice. Holds its flavor, focus and intensity through a long aftertaste.
Good deepish crimson. Fragrant. Perhaps more appetising than the 1991 - on the nose, anyway. Lovely balance. Very, very ripe. Perhaps slightly drier and lighter. Lovely balance. Complete ripeness. More austere than many. Racy.
