Decanted for two hours. Wine is just a little past its peak but drinking really well. Did not see a color problem. Earthy flavor and some dryness. But for 34 years old I loved the balance and structure. Glad I have one left.

Brought to the table tonight by Jim Aronson after a 1 hour slow ox in the bottle. Light/medium garnet in the glass. Some orange bricking noticeable as you swirl the glass, and it seemed like as it got more air over 3 hours a little more orange became evident in the glass.
Nose of smoky/meaty elements., later on a hint of....root beer and leather?
Palate of still surprisingly silky fruit, primarily black prunes, but not stewed fruit. I hate stewed fruit! HMC noted the wine had almost a Madeira-like quality to it on the palate. Maybe a bit of balsamic? Very well made and still surprisingly complex all around given its age at 34 years. The first of these I've ever had and while I'm not the biggest Syrah or CDP guy, it was quite enjoyable and certainly a treat to experience it. I was torn between a score of 94 and 95 in my notebook and did not check on CT to see what its average score was before posting this note. Good to know I'm in the ballpark as I am in no way a CDP expert. Thanks for the great experience with this bottle, Jim!

Finally I got a great 1990 Chapelle. At his peak, low in fruits an tannins, but nicely balanced. Spicy . 97

Incredible wine drinking experience. Evolved over 3 hours, hit its peak around 2 hours. Dark fruit, pomegranate, leather, pepper, eventually got blueberry, baking spice, and lots of complexity, with a long finish. Fun fun fun.
