A soft, weedy Calon-Segur, with a washed-out ruby color, herb, pepper, and earthy aromas, light to medium body, and low tannin, this 1997 should be consumed over the next 3-4 years.
Rather light for Calon but very aromatic, with cherry, spice aromas and a light, fruity finish.
Rene Gabriel rates this wine 16/20 points.
