At 97 years of age, this show stopper of a wine has the silky, exotic, patina of age to its texture, with this, medium bodied, beautiful mix of flowers, cherry and strawberry, buttressed by tobacco leaf, smoke, barbecue and herbs. Elegant, sensuous and still, with purity of fruit in the finish. I could have waited 3 years, until it was 100, but what if the wine was there, and I wasn't?

Silky, soft, polished, medium bodied, elegant and refined, as well as sensual, the red fruits tasted as good as they felt.
