  A nose of earthy spice and some funk, brick ruby in color. A medium to full bodied CDP, blackberry, licorice some spice on finish, past it’s prime, drink now. www.winelx.com

  Bottle #02195 (#4 for me). Although a quite weak vintage for C9P, this is so powerful, fruity and lovely, that I decided to rebuy another 6 bottles by auction at 22€/bottle all fees included.
  
  Why drink a simple and ordinary CdR of a recent vintage (maybe for about half the price), if you can get this excellent quality of a cellared bottle ?

  Bottle no. 02220 (#3 for me). Still very fruity and strong. After one hour decanting even better while more integrated. Lovely CDP. No hurry for the remaining bottles.
