This wine was purchased around 1996 and stored in a wine cellar unit. Pop and pour and tasted over 1 hour. The color is still bright and deep purple with some bricking. In the mouth, there is good fruit, rich, with some dried herbs and mint around the fringes. Flavors of black cherries and plums and basil finishing up with some black tea. Slight bit of drying tannins on the finish.
