A nice vintage red to finish off. This is a wine that I loved despite its unworthy vintage. When it was young it was rough, cantankerous, not very balanced. Today it is a subtle but complete red, with a few garnet streaks. The bouquet is of dried leaves, underbrush, good earth. The taste is silky, seductive, caressing, that leaves the mouth satisfied and very grateful. A wonderful acidity.
