From memory, confirmed by notes, I found this bottle fresher than the previous about 18 months ago. Colour lightish red with less rust tints than before. Nose quite discreet showing typically attractive PN cherry aromas with a kirsch tinge. The medium bodied palate showed mature PN fruit and suave texture together with still lively acidity and residual firmness on the decently long finish. This bottle, alas my last, had plenty of life left and maybe even improvement potential. Very good.

Nice mature Burg. Colour lightish red with rust tints. Nose well developed with typical PN cherry aromas mixed with rusty metallic hints. The medium bodied palate showed mature PN fruit, some forest floor, quite suave texture together with still lively acidity and a certain firmness on the decently long finish. Very good.

Light ruby color. Nice mature burgundy, but rather light -- lacking in concentration. Good range of complex fruit, and notable, well-integrated earthy notes. Better on second night.
