St. Jean C. Cepages 1993

[sedhead]

We had this last weekend. Dark ruby almost purple but clear.
After about 30 minutes the aroma of berry,vanilla{oak?]. Med to full body with cherry or berry fruit finish of about 15-20 seconds. Good balance, tannins are nice and smooth. Wife detected a chocolate after taste.
I had a hard time decanting this wine. I stood it up for about two days before opening it. While decanting, I couldn't see any sediment so I stopped pouring until near the bottom. When I dumped the wine remiaing in the bottle I did not see any solid pices of sediment in the wine or on the inside of the bottle?
The wine tasted fine and I would rate it VG-outstanding but a notch lower than the 1992 Gallo I posted on a month ago.
