What a lovely wine. Even at 20 years of age the cork extracted easily. The wine was red with no signs of oxidation. The bouquet was minimal. There was pronounced fruit, some oak and acid. It was a lovely, very nicely balanced wine. It was my last bottle. I wish I had more.

The color had a slight brownish tinge. The bouquet was floral, though slight. The flavor was fruit predominant with a touch of tanin. The wine was bright and harmonious. It was a delight to drink. There was nothing tired about this wine even though it was 18 years old.
