The wine shows plum, fig, cherry, earthy, mineral notes and medium body, but the elevated tannins in the finish are distracting. Nevertheless, the wine has a youthfulness and vigor that make it far less evolved than its more seductive older siblings, the 1983 and 1985. (1/ 2003)
Good ruby color. Aromas of leather, berry and horse. Slight raisin character. Full-bodied, with fine tannins. (6/ 2001)
