Brick red color. Sweet tobacco, red fruit, tea & leather scents. Flavors of black & red cherries, sweet tabacco, tea and herbs. Dusty tannins in the finish.

Much better after a very long decant. Decent after an hour, but didnt hit its stride until almost 3 hrs in the decanter. Amazing that this is even still drinkable after 24 years. Solid red fruit nose with strong VA and funky earth/dirt. Lighter bodied that expected, with red/black fruits, strong dirt component, moderate bitterness, drying tannins. Probably better 10 years ago, but still drinkable for people who really like old wine. Not rated.
