Interesting opportunity to taste a bunch of wines with perfect provenance
still intensive color; leather, meat, sandalwood - quite long. sweet intensity. Elena: Prune in chocolate.

deep ruby w/orange rim. A bit less giving nose. ripe fruit, but also good acidity. Found it very elegant.
deep red, youthful color and feel. Lots of fruit, exuberant, reminds me of 1990 La Chapelle. Long
cherries, chocolate, dark berry, very big, long. sweet finish. Showed very well - could be an early drinking wine.
herbs de provence, intensive; nice wine
Solid, well-made wine
very rich, jammy, a bit one-dimensional; very sweet and little acidity. Would drink up.
mature, sweet, potpourri; lots of complexity and multi-dimensional. Interesting wine and I understand very rare. But did not fall in love with it.
even though our bottle was very slightly corked the expressiveness of the wine was obvious
intensive color, lots of energy. Concentrated - a sense of muscat, sugar, almost port/sweet wine;beautiful aromas though

over dinner - found this a bit introvert; would wait. not as impressive as some of the others.
Less impressive than the earlier wines; a bit reserved, almost closed?
very fresh for its age - drinks wonderful
