The 1995 is a return to form. The dark ruby/purple color is followed by a satiny-textured, mocha, coffee, and cherry-scented and flavored wine. Low acidity gives this wine a forward, plump personality. Drink it over the next 7-8 years.
All of the wines in this segment were tasted between March 19 and March 28 in Bordeaux. Most of the important wines from both the 1994 and 1995 vintages were tasted three separate times during my ten-day stay in Bordeaux.
