1996 Hess Collection - winoweenie - 07-30-2013
Woowsie!!!!! This sucker rocks. In a vintage not known for ennythin' 'cept being before the 1997 this is a scrumptious bottle of juice. Deep purple(would make a great song title), Penetrating nose with loads of red fruits, spices, and still has enough tannins to carry this dude another 2-4. Justifies all the money the Hess' plowed into this stellar property. WW
