I never expected this to hold up as well as it has for a 1997 that cost me $25 (price sticker still on the bottle). No tannins to speak of and fruit is still very prominent (though not "bright"). Went extremely well with sous vide medium rare New York strip steaks finish-seared in a cast iron skillet.

day one;elegant and balanced, though straightforward; very nice with thanksgiving meal. Surprisingly better on day two--more open and complex

No fruit, somewhat thin, needed to be drank a few years ago

Probably my fault for waiting too long, But this one can't even see the hill that it was over some years ago.
