This ripe, low-acid wine illustrates the nature of the 2003 vintage. Brandied cherries, cinnamon and clove come together in a flavor package reminiscent of fruit cake or spice cake. It’s mouthfilling and round, held together by some dusty, leathery tannins that should smooth out nicely in another year or two. Imported by Boisset America. ——J.C.(11/15/2005)—— 90
