1997 Sterling Diamond Mtn. Ranch

[winoweenie]

Not nearly as profound as its' next-door neighbor(Diamond Creek Volcanic Hill) but still a very nice wine. Has hit the sweet spot so time to start guzzling up. Medium deep ruby. Nose has some red and black fruits, a nice floral element and a spicy tangy tone that is integrated. Good entry, solid center and a 3&3/4 lapper finish. 89/90. 32 by the box. 13.5% alc. WW
