“WS95 - 1996 Chateau St. Jean Cinq Cepages Cabernet - Wine Of The Year - Wine Spectator! Scents of red currant herb sage and tobacco are firm tight and tannic on the palate making this well-structured. A hint of sweet ripe fruit midpalate provides a complex note but this turns very dry and tannic on the finish.--1996 California Cabernet retrospective.”
