Produced from a parcel whose oldest vines were planted in 1936, this medium-to-dark ruby-colored wine is a fragrant wine that reveals scents of smoked pork, crisp black fruits, and all-spice. This medium-to-full-bodied, expressive, vivacious, mouth-coating, and sweet (but not cloying) offering is expansive, soft, and possesses blackberry and cassis flavors. Anticipated maturity: 1999-2004.
