This lovely wine from the good 1997 vintage scores 90-92/100 parker points and "reveals a dense black/ruby/purple color, as well as sweet, ripe fruit with an element of sur-maturite. The tell-tale cassis, licorice, mineral, animal, and meaty aromas are present, but the wine possesses a velvety texture, concentrated fruit, and a long, powerful, rich finish." Drink now – 2015. This wine is shipped in our deluxe, hinged wooden box at no extra cost.
