  December 13, 2019 - Drunk at Giando's Hong Kong - Served blind and mistaken by most as a Northern Rhone at least 30 years younger. Ample sweetness that you would expect from a wine of this age but still plenty of acid holding it together and dare I say it giving it plenty of future. I was extremely impressed with this, CndP can definitely age!

  March 2, 2011 - Almost transparent, needs one hour to unfold it's nose.... after that, intoxicating nose of ripe framboises, musk, brown sugar, leather, gamey, old feasant... the nose became sweeter and stronger with time, at it's best after 4 hours slow ox in the bottle... mouth is sweet brown sugar with red currants, 15 sec lenght, a hint below the great 1953, but still very pleasurable for a 53 year old wine!
