4/13/2024 - Rani Likes this wine: 91 Points
Bottle with very good level, cork not perfect but in tact. Nose was a bit brown at first but dissipated quickly (not decanted). Next to its 1990 sibling it was not as fresh and balanced but still very good. Muscular, dark fruit profile, old leather and a bit of pencil lead. Tannins are present but elegant, would have preferred a little more acidity.

Almost shockingly youthful, from a recent Wine Watch purchase. Deep ruby, orange edge. Beautiful aroma of dark berries and cassis. Slightly smoother on the palate than previous bottles although with time it revealed its origin with more rusticity and charcoal. Vibrant and complex. Excellent.

Delicious wine that kept its youth. We opened and decanted and drank without waiting at that age. Had tannins that you felt in your mouth and swallow. Thank you Hoffman’s for the gift.
