Strange, the vintage is shown as '04, but the same piece of label talks of the '00 vintage. Regardless, the bright colour signals a wine of distinct freshness, the red berry fruits backed by a strong streak of acidity, the tannins under strict control. A perfectly inserted Diam may underwrite the life of the wine for a long time to come.
