Score 86/100 · Drink 2005, Robert Parker, Apr 1999

The 1996 is a well-made wine. It offers up a sweet nose of plum fruit intertwined with cherries. Sweet fruit, good fat, and a touch of oak give the wine a plump, savory mouth-feel. This is a charming, bistro-styled red with more depth and ripeness than many wines costing twice as much. Drink it over the next 5-6 years.
