Napa Valley, California, USA
Smells like cedar and incense. Not usually my thing but very good.

Simply put, this is a great vintage. Even after 27 years, the wine continues to evolve in the glass with every sip. This Bordeaux blend was dark in color, with a fruity bouquet, high acid, and a long, dynamic finish. Lots of tertiary flavors; some hints of dark, black fruit and tobacco with earthy undertones. The mouthfeel was soft and smooth. This wine is at it’s peak. Paired with charred lamb skewers and mushroom risotto.

These 97's are drinking well. Great fruit and acidity. I'd buy a case of this if I could find it.
