Robert Parker's Wine Advocate : An unqualified sleeper of the vintage, the opaque purple-colored 1995 Grand Mayne displays a sweet, creamy, black raspberry-scented nose with subtle notes of smoky, toasty oak. Both powerful and elegant, this wine exhibits layers of richness, nicely integrated acidity and tannin, and an impressive full-bodied, long finish.
This offering should be drinkable early, and keep for over a decade.
Blend : 80% Merlot and 20% Cabernet Franc.
