Score 93-95/100 · Drink 2002-2010, Pierre Rovani, Aug 1998
Produced from 55 year old vines, this dark ruby/purple-colored wine is stunning. Explosive aromas of sweet blackberries and raspberries as well as a massive mouthful of chewy, dense, and seductive red currants and plump cherries tantalize the palate. This full-bodied, refined, velvety-textured, thick wine is complex, and concentrated. Its long finish reveals a myriad of spices, loads of red and black fruits, as well as ripe tannins. Drink this gem between 2002 and 2010. Importer: Robert Kacher Selections, Washington, DC; tel. (202) 832-9083.
