Bright tawny color, translucent. Exotic nose with notes of cherry, rhubarb, Asian spice, earth and raspberry. Amazing perfume. In the mouth this shows the 96 vintage battle of fruit vs acidity. Still lots of acidity and structure right now, but the fruit is running second place. Good showing overall tonight. What will this be in 5 years I'm wondering.

In the mouth, very angular and tight - even with 2+ hrs of air. That 96 acidity still has some power over the fruit. Med plus finish. But oh that nose....

Probably the best burgundy red I have tasted in years. Big nose, long finish and so much fruit. Unreal
