Impressive wine. Dark ruby color. Lovely aromas of raspberries, chocolate and flowers. Full-bodied and very chewy. Still holding back yet there's fruit under it all.
The 1990 is a highly successful effort, with an opaque dark rubypurple color, a big, spicy, oaky, vanillin, and black cherry-scented nose, medium to full body, good tannin and grip, and a surprisingly long, structured finish.
