Black raspberry, plum, wood chips, dried flowers, menthol, toasted hazelnuts, cola, cigar box, tar, cacao. Ripe acidity, rich satin texture, broad sweet rough velvet tannins, long smoky-black cherry-herbal finish. Highly aromatic, complex tannic structure, a smooth behemoth. Not for the purists. Had just enough acid to keep it balanced, drink now or forever rest in piece.

Rich, sweet Fruits, savory elements, Oak is fully integrated. The 1996 Gallina is slightly better as the finish is longer.
