Speaking of great vintage years.... after some extensive tasting of some of the older wines in my cellar, Ive upgraded the vintage 1997 to the list of best years of the 1990s for Argentina. These wines are showing amazing power and balance as they are just about to turn 11 years of age... this is a "hidden" top vintage for Argentina as most people remember the horrible 1998 and outstanding 1999.... 1997 has now become my favorite dark horse vintage
