A sexy, open-knit wine, the 1995 Ferrand-Lartigue exhibits a dark ruby/purple color, a jammy, candied fruit and toasty-scented nose, ripe, velvety-textured, complex, generous black cherry and cassis flavors, and low acidity. This medium-bodied, already delicious wine is ideal for drinking now and over the next decade. A sleeper of the vintage. Anticipated maturity 1998-2008. - Robert Parker 1998 -
