88 Points

Thursday, March 6, 2014 - Light, with rustic tannins and hint of tartness in the berries, the nose, with its tobacco, earth, cassis and barnyard aromatics is fine. But the fruit is losing the race with the tannins on the palate and in the finish. Time will probably not improve this wine. At 19 years of age, it is, what it is.

    4/9/2014 5:18:00 PM - very interested in your characterisation of "light" - is it color or body? I had this wine 10 yrs Ago and recalled a fairly well structured wine with great body and deep claret color. Aged not well?
