"Produced from vines averaging 60 years old (the oldest are 80), this wine displays a medium-to-dark ruby color and a fragrant nose composed of violets, sweet cassis, blackberries, and perfume. This concentrated, extracted, powerful, and structured offering is full-bodied, rich, and densely packed with blackberries, stones, and tangy raspberries." Wine Advocate #118, Aug 1998 |
