Somewhat light boddied compared to other classico's of the vintage. Bright fruit flavor was nice but overall one dimensional. Not a bad wine for the money to go with a simple lunch.

Excellent balance of acidity. Plenty of fruit and rich body. Slight tannin structure was approachable but still was able to add a pleasant strength to the mouthfeel. This paired very well with a hearty lasagna.

Really nice dark fruit with undertones of petrol and eucalyptus. Excellent structure. Still had firm tannins. This has the ability to age more.
