This estate appears to be making an effort to produce higher quality wines. The 1996 reveals a deceptively light ruby color, along with ripe fruit (cherries) and toasty new oak in the nose. It is a pretty, elegant wine with medium body, and an unmistakable cherry flavor component. Readers should think of this as a Pomerol modeled along the lines of De Sales. Drink it over the next 5-6 years.

Rustic, but good concentration for the vintage. Like frozen berries on the nose, with a hint of grape skins. Medium-bodied, with silky tannins and a black cherry aftertaste. Best after 2000. -JS
