Wine Advocate
byRobert Parkerthe9/1/1998
This wine is another disappointing offering that appears to be losing its fruit and fat at an accelerated pace. It possesses a medium ruby/garnet color with considerable rust at the edge. The nose offers up aromas of olives, grilled vegetables, and straightforward cherry fruit. In the mouth, the wine is medium-bodied and soft, with some acidity and tannin poking through the meager flesh. This wine needs to be drunk up. Anticipated maturity: Now-2003. Last tasted 3/97
