Tasting note: Fresh, moderately deep ruby-red. Spicy, lively aromas of cinnamon and vanilla. Round in flavor and rather elegantly styled, but doesn't offer the weight or impact of a major wine. (87pts. DT, Stephen Tanzer’s International Wine Cellar)
Tasted: Aug. 2000
Score: 87
Drink: N/A
Tasting note: A well-structured Sass, with plenty of blackberry and dried herb character. Full-bodied, with plenty of ripe tannins and a currant bush and herb finish. Give it time to develop. (91pts. JS, Wine Spectator)
