  Clear, medium ruby fading to a clear rim. Subtle, aged, elegant on the nose. Dusty strawberry. Leafy. Palate is fully mature with bright acids. Subtle red fruit, smooth tannins and medium length finish. Past peak.

  Pop and pour. Ripe and lush with blue fruit complexion. Medium weight. Modern Rolland style. Paired well with braised lamb. Good value at $30. Fine grained tannins and not much structure left. Drink now as I don't see this one getting any better.

  colour does not show the edge, just a bit of rim. Very nice nose but the taste has a sligtly bitter finish

  Cedary, lush, less forceful or complex than the 97 Pape Clement drunk the prior evening. Soft, expansive, inviting finish. With air slightly cheesy, at least for a while. Medium bodied. Nice but not outstanding wine.
