"Rich aromas of coffee and raspberries with hints of plums. Medium-bodied, with velvety tannins and smoky finish. Very fine. Best after 2005. 7,500 cases made."

"Color: deep; Nose: complex; Acidity: lively; Body: medium-bodied; Med to full bodied. Nose of berry - raspberry, tree bark & plum. Soft, but lively w/ well integrated tannins - berries, plums and hint of cola on a beautiful finish where the fruit turns from sweet to toasty/carmelized "

"Wow, what a sexy wine! Deep ruby/purple, with a glorious nose of kirsch liqueur, caramel, and toast, this sweet, expansive, medium to full-bodied wine marries elegance and power brilliantly. The acidity is low, the fruit ripe, the tannins integrated, and the impression one of sumptuous, concentrated fruit. Drink it over the next decade. This is the best La Vieille Cure made to date."
