description: Lush and chocolaty, yet also filled with layers of cherry fruit. Winemaker Stuart Bourne compares it to Cherry Ripe, an Australian candy bar similar to Mounds with cherry mixed into the coconut filling, and he's spot on. This starts off creamy-smooth, then develops a velvety edge of tannin on the long finish. Close in quality to the still-stunning 1998; drink now–2020. Imported by Pacific Wine Partners.
