- winoweenie - 09-29-2002 This dude be coming along swimmingly. Seems as the Cinqs' put on some wrinkles the nose intigrates into a medly instead of the predominate Cab Franc in its' youth. Brite crystal ruby with no browning. Loads of red fruits, cassis, and (get this Foodie) just a modicum of mint. [img]http://www.wines.com/ubb2/biggrin.gif[/img]. Solid palate feel throughout and a nice 4 lapper finish. The last year of under 30 per. HATE THE BLASTED SPECULATOR. 91/92 WW - Drew - 09-29-2002 Agree and fortunate that I have 8 left. Drew - winoweenie - 09-29-2002 Life is GOOD!!!!!WW - Drew - 10-23-2002 Popped one the other night and "Where's the fruit?" Completely dominated by oak and an unpleasant drinking experience. I hope this was just bottle variation. Drew - wondersofwine - 10-23-2002 Wine Speculator likes it again with the recent release. - winecollector - 10-30-2002 Recently been drinking both my 96's and 97's... and 97's seem to be much more age worthy. I'd suggest anyone that has the 96's ta pop those babies open... in my humble opinion they are at peak right now and extremely enjoyable. |
