Score 84-85/100 · Robert Parker, Apr 1997

mature appearance. Quite a rich nose, almost Rhone like with raisin and dried fruits. A soft entry on the palate, savory, quite meaty with some dryness marring the finish. I expected a little more from this great vintage. Drink now. (No tasting note was provided in Issue 110. We have instead included the text of the tasting note from the 1997 Neal Martin’s Wine Journal)
