An impressive wine that would have gotten an even higher rating if it had not shown so much toasty new oak, this tannic 1997 reveals a fine texture as well as a wealth of sweet, jammy black currant fruit infused with smoke, mineral, and leather. Medium to full-bodied and backward, it needs 3-4 years of cellaring, and should keep for 10-15 years. No telephone listing available.

Packed with ripe, chalky flavors of blackberry, earth, black licorice and mocha. The firm tannins harmonize nicely with espresso notes on the finish. 600 cases made.

Medium ruby red to the rim, gorgeous nose of big red berries, soft well integrated tannins with a full 45 second finish. Very nice wine. Great value this wine is delicious. Has a lot of time remaining. This wine will drink well for the next 8 to 12 years.

A flawed bottle may be affected by cork taint, heat (maderized), oxidation, or excessive sulfur. Additionally, some people consider wines tainted by Brettanomyces (Brett), a non-spore forming genus of yeast, a flaw although there is much controversy surrounding the subject.
