The 2002 Coleccion Jaime Rodriguez went through malolactic fermentation in new French oak and remained in barrel for 24 months. It is purple-colored with aromas of pain grille, spice box, black berry, and black cherry. This leads to a structured wine but one that is lacking some depth. Give it 3-5 years in the cellar and drink it through 2020.
