1997 Pine Ridge Napa Rutherford

Another of them dudes that evoke the "shoulda, woulda'". Lovely brite ruby. Nose showing mature red and soft black fruits, spice, and a tad of the dust. All hit the palate along with some bakers cocoa. Silky entry, weighty center and a solid 4 lapper finish. Tannins are almost all resolved but will hold another 4-8 with optimum storage. Lovely effort. 91/93. 20 by the box.13.8% alc. WW
