Dark ruby/purple with a pleasant, straightforward nose of plums, flowers, underbrush, and licorice, the medium-bodied 2002 possesses a good attack and mid-palate, but then finishes abruptly.
Excellent aromas of currant and spice. Medium-bodied, with silky tannins and a caressing finish. Lacks a bit of a midpalate, but still well-made. A very nice wine.
Rene Gabriel rates this wine 17/20 points.
