Well,
this is certainly a treat to open! A mere 18 years later, this Becker blend of
50/50 Nebbiolo and Merlot still has some great things to entice your wine
senses. That brick red color may have something to say about its age, but those
aromas of berry and dried plum will certainly intrigue your nose. It has some
blueberry flavors with a touch of smokiness throughout. This medium bodied red
wine has just enough earthy undertones to give it some surprisingly good
character even after all these years. The acids are light, and the tannins are
still holding moderately well. You will
still be pleased at the lingering fine finish this lovely wine provides. Enjoy
over a few hours to see how it unfolds. The only sad part is that you might
have wished you had more. None the less, Cheers!
