The black ruby/purple-colored 1996 offers more licorice, in addition to obvious levels of pain grillé, jammy black currant fruit, and spice notes. Structured, full-bodied and powerful, this may be a Private Reserve to cellar for several years, and consume over the subsequent 15-18 Rated 91 Robert Parker This is an outstanding wine, ripe and intense, with firm layers of earthy currant, anise, black cherry and plummy flavors framed by tight tannins and spicy, cedary oak notes. Best from 2002 through 2010. 14,000 cases made. Rated 90 Wine Spectator |
