Score 87/100 · Drink 2001-2006, Robert Parker, Feb 1997

An impressive saturated black/purple color is followed by a wine with excellent black-cherry and cassis fruit, medium body, fine purity, and surprising opulence and unctuosity. If this wine is not excessively fined and filtered at bottling, it should turn out to be up an upper eighty-point effort. Anticipated maturity: 2001-2016.

A cuddly and caressing wine. Plenty of crushed berries and chocolate in it. Full- to medium-bodied, with lots of soft tannins and a long, sweet fruit finish. Best after 1999. James Suckling,Wine Spectator 1998.
