Medium to deep brick in color, the 1973 Hill of Grace puts forward a slightly funky yet wonderfully pronounced nose redolent of meat, chargrill and new leather plus some sandalwood and potpourri. There is a little bit of leathery hardness on the palate, yet is endowed with great concentration, a vibrant and refreshing acid line plus medium levels of grainy tannins all the way through the long finish. It is mature. The 1974 Hill of Grace was not made. Importer: Negociants USA, Napa, CA; tel. (707) 259-0993
