Note di degustazione
(14.2% alcohol): Saturated dark red. Rich, expressive, slightly high-toned scents of dark raspberry, truffley underbrush, coffee, mocha and spices, along with an herbal element. Then plush and broad on the palate; considerably fuller and fleshier than the pre-Melka vintages here. Plum and herb flavors are complemented by burnished oak notes of torrefaction. At once drier, slightly greener and more energetic than the 1998.

The 2000 possesses pleasant smoky cherry and currant characteristics, medium body, good sweet fruit, but a superficial style. This charming effort is best consumed over the next 5-6 years. Tel. (707) 963-9292; Fax (707) 963-7848
(from vines planted in 1989) Good medium red. Aromas of red cherry, redcurrant, flowers and dill. Bright flavors of sweet red fruits, chocolate and maple syrup. A rather linear style of cabernet, with firm acids. Finishes with fine, granular tannins and very good length.
