Score 81/100 · Drink 1984-1993, Robert Parker, Jan 1998
The 1976 is a straightforward sort of wine, which is fully mature. It is medium ruby-colored, with a spicy, plump, fruity bouquet, medium body, attractive, gentle, almost polite flavors, and a rather short, yet soft finish. Anticipated maturity: Now-1993. Last tasted, 4/84.
