Score 85/100 · Drink 1989-1999, Robert Parker, Jan 1998

This big, full-bodied wine has a dark ruby color, with some amber at the edge, a spicy, oaky, black cherry bouquet, medium body, rich, rustic, spicy, long flavors, and a long but slightly astringent finish. Are the tannins too excessive? Anticipated maturity: Now-1999. Last tasted, 3/89.
