Exhibiting a medium-to-dark ruby color and sweet red cherry and Asian spice aromas, this wine is an outstanding wine. It offers a silky-textured, charming (no pun intended), feminine, extremely well-balanced, and harmonious medium-to-full body filled with raspberries, strawberries, cherries, and toasted oak flavors. While it has the requisite structure for extended cellaring, this gem will also offer superb early drinking. Projected maturity: 2000-2010.
