1997 Hess Estate

[winoweenie]

Decided to revisit this lil' hummer. Since the 1sr bottle it has shed some of the astringincy and tannins and now shows its mountain grape heritage.Still deep ruby, nose of red and black fruit, spice and chocolate. Nice entry, mid-weight center and a solid 3&3/4 lapper finish. Still some lingering tannins but a very solid effort. 89/92. 20 by the box. 13% alc.WW

I can't tell you how many times in the past I have quoted (with credit) your comments on older vintages when talking to my "collection" customers; very helpful service you're providing! Thanks for posting them!

BTW- Am heading to Walla Walla and then Prosser later this week, we should drop each other a line when possible... [img]http://wines.com/ubb2/wink.gif[/img]
