Sooo much better than the last time I had it. This was a very youthful, charming, sweetly fruited wine.

Big bold smooth, some spice, but prob not the best representation of this wine. Will have to try another bottle. 13.9% alc/vol

This has lovely plush fruit. That sweet softness of a well made, now 36 year old wine.
