Score 85-86/100 · Drink 2009, Robert Parker, Apr 1999

The tasty 1997 is a light to medium-bodied, round, richly fruity wine with low acidity and little structure and tannin. Offering an attractive display of red fruits, minerals, and spice, it should drink well during its first decade of life.

Very attractive tobacco, cherry and dried herb aromas. Medium-bodied, slightly harsh, with an herbal finish. Drink now. – James Suckling, Wine Spectator 2000
