Double-decanted and left for an hour. Aromas and flavours were past-its-peak older Rhone. Decent concentration and energy, just not that interesting flavourwise. 11th of 12.

Quite delicious, plenty of life left in this wine. Raw meat, wet tobacco leaf, tart black cherry and earthy aromas and flavors. The tannins are smooth and velvety, with good supporting acidity and a med+ finish. Drink now.

Holding up beautifully since last bottle opening 4/23/18. Better than some CdPs at more than 2x the price. A tribute to the quality of Beaucastel!

Really nice nose on P&P, dark color w/slight bricking. Lush on the palate. Better than many.many CdPs.
