"Bright violet. A suave, highly perfumed bouquet evokes ripe red fruits, Asian spices and smoky minerals, along with a sexy lavender overtone. Sweet raspberry, floral pastille and spicecake flavors show impressive depth as well as vivacity. In a distinctly elegant, seamless style, especially for the vintage, but there's also good structure here thanks to a core of juicy acidity. The very long, floral-dominated finish is given shape by smooth tannins that fold quickly into the plush, appealingly sweet fruit."
