Firmly structured, tannic, but impressively concentrated, Magdelaine’s 1995 has a deep ruby color and a sweet nose of vanilla, kirsch liqueur, plums, and flowers. It is a medium-bodied, very pretty wine that is feminine, seductive, and well-balanced, although the tannins in the finish suggest it is not yet fully mature. Anticipated maturity: 2005-2012. Last tasted, 12/02.
