Not bad at all for the money......perky and alive sour raspberry/cherry/plum skin, cinnamon spice, dried tobacco leaves, some grass, potpourri florals. Somewhat dry in tannin, not much fruit considering the ripe Vintage...but has a nice tart and light Burgundy feel, with a little earth and spice complexity. I feel good drinkin this at $22, but won't race out and get more.

This wine aged beautifully. It took 30 minutes for it to develop but it just kept getting better and better.

Wine had a very light nose. Tasted of red cherry. Soft on the palate; not much of a finish. A good complement to lamb chops.

sour raspberry and black fruit (plum?) -- the sourness on the palate was too much and limited this wine. The group liked this better than me.
