Tasting notes
This wine possesses too much tannin for its uninspiring concentration of fruit. The medium ruby color is accompanied by a wine with cherry, herb, and earth aromas. But the dusty tannin and other rustic character of this wine does not bode well for future development. It should keep for a decade, but there is not enough flesh or fruit to cover the wine's framework. Anticipated maturity: 2000-2006. Last tasted 11/97
