Light strawberry color, and a sweet nose of red fruits and oak. The flavors are disjointed, with a syrupy sweet cherry/strawberry note conflicting with heavy oak. Though many '94 Gran Reservas are drinking wonderfully, and some can stand further aging, this one is falling apart, and it's not pretty. 13% alc., and it runs around $20 in these parts. If you've got this one, drink it soon.
