  Unfortunately heat damaged. Frustratingly, just undamaged enough for me to taste how good it would have been in good condition.

  Big fan of BPR. Have been eyeing this one on the wine list for about a year (Soby’s in Greenville SC). Finally took a chance. Beautifully preserved. No signs of age damage. Seems more fruity than more recent vintages. After decanting, improved with time. An excellent bottle.

  Absolutely delicious. Fruity, with black currant and cherries. Still delicious well beyond the CellarTracker dates.

  Beautiful mellow cab. Notes of plum and luscious cherries on the nose. Palate is mellowing red fruit but very clearly a cab. Yum.
