Score 88/100 · Drink 1997-2001, Robert Parker, Apr 1997
An excellent Merlot, this dark ruby/purple-colored wine offers plenty of sweet, jammy, chocolatey, black-cherry fruit in its moderately intense aromatics. The wine is medium-bodied, soft, and succulent, with low acidity, copious amounts of fruit, and good ripeness. Drink this delicious, lush Merlot over the next 2-4 years. Tel. (707) 963-2745
