Score 86/100 · Drink 1995, Robert Parker, Dec 1995

This wine has been fully mature since the late eighties. It offers an attractive, vegetal, fruity nose of olives, pepper, and mocha-tinged cherry fruit. Soft, medium-bodied, and round, with an easy-going personality, this wine continues to drink well, although I see no reason for cellaring it any longer . Tasted 7 times since bottling with consistent notes.

Medium red. Fully developed aromas of candied red fruits, mocha and bitter chocolate. Soft, lush and sweet, with flavors similar to the aromas. Not especially complex, but shows solid extract and the fleshiness of the vintage. Finishes with ripe, easy tannins. Still delicious, but drink this soon.
