The latest available locally from this wonderful house; 14 months in small oak barriques followed by 12 months in bottle prior to release. Deep red in the glass, full bright nose of ripe red fruit; solid entry, much more red fruit on the palate, moderate graceful finish. Shows much promise. Not up to the '01 yet, or the '03 (if sound), but very promising for further development. 13.5% alc/vol and now about $26. With lasagna.
