This full-throttle, powerhouse offers explosive levels of macho fruit and body along with a chewy texture. It is never a delicate or particularly charming wine, but rather one that tends to grab the taster's attention with intensity and muscle more than anything else. The 1986 is typical of this estate, but has a bit more tannin in the finish to go along with its ponderous, robust style. Anticipated maturity: Now-2001. Last tasted, 3/89.
