    Notes:Deep ruby in color with a medium red rim. A bit closed at first, although still spirity with a hint of acetone. Black and red currents arriving a bit later in the glass. Much more balanced than the 1995 LBV. Still a bit acidic, but with fresher fruit flavors and a decent finish. Drinkable, a good solid LBV.
