Packed tannins support layers of dark, ripe fruit in this powerfully dry wine. With its dense fruit and herbal flavor this is a fine, solid wine that should age well. The Cent Vignes “Hundred Vines” vineyard is reputed for its heady wines, and this is no exception. Imported by Cannon Wines Limited. ——R.V.(9/1/2005)—— 90

Shows “redder” fruit than the Greves; brighter and sweeter—more like strawberries than cherries. Soft and supple, there’s no aging necessary. Picks up coffee and chocolate notes on the finish. ——W.E.(4/1/2003)—— 87
