Wine visually shows its years, color moving to an aged garnet, with some light bricking on the rim, locely bordeaux like nose, good balance if lacking intensity, but decent fruit, nicely integrated with secondary notes, starting to get some tobacco, cedar.

Nice drink.

Think that was the year Mike Robbins turned down 20 million for the vineyard when it was the site of the TV series Falcon Crest. He dint realize that the Japanese NEVER haggled on a deal. I Stayed in the visitors apartment in the shed which Mike built to reside in whilst he and his BH were divving up the assets. She ended up with all the cash and he kept the vineyard and gorgus house. Sadly he lost the whole bundle to the bank. I've never heard nor has he been seen by any of me buds since. WW

Sad indeed! But the lesson it teaches is greed is ALWAYS triumphed by goodness. WW (Whatever the blue-blazes that means)
