A nice fruity wine with notes of blackberry and some black cherry.
Amber in color, citrus flavors, melon, and vanilla aromas. A great buy that should work with a lot of deserts.
"Aromas of dried pineapple, honey and peaches follow through to a full-bodied palate with medium sweetness and a spicy, lively aftertaste. Very long. Not quite the 2001, but very close. Best after 2009." Wine Spectator 90
"Reminiscent of the 1990, this blend of 70% Cabernet Sauvignon, 26% Merlot, and 4% Cabernet Franc possesses low acidity, good ripeness (but not over-ripe), and Grand-Puy-Lacoste’s classic creme de cassis character well-displayed. Medium to full-bodied with noticeable tannin in the finish, it is a heady, rich, beautifully made Pauillac that should be drinkable within 3-4 years. Anticipated maturity: 2007-2018."
