USA 1997 (By JK @ Bottles): Smoke, butterscotch and yellow fruits in the bouquet. On the palate full bodied, yellow fruits, good vanilla from the oak, good acidity and some bitterness in the finish. Beautiful and rich wine.

Deep golden color with a slight oxidized but penetrating nose. The oxidiztion showed in the mouth but was balanced with acidity and fruit that was delicious. Served with New Year's Eve lobster and matched beautifully.

97 Napa-retrospective (Restaurant Bottles, Sas van Gent): Flinty fireworks, hint of oxidation, popcorn, butter, vanilla. Very powerful and looking for balance at this moment. Maybe still young??
