  Clear light red. Gamey berry fruit, warm stone, plum and some funk and black pepper. Delicious earthy dry pepper, roasted meat and dry red berry flavours and a long dry textured finish.
  
  Still going strong.

  Bill's bottle. Light garnet color with tertiary notes of pepper, herbs, Morroccan leather and canned Queen Anne cherries. My WOTN.

  Perfectly apoint! But very little amber. I've had this cellared since original release. Still showing some fruit, wonderful nose, medium finish. All the flavors you'd expect from a nicely aged Ch d'P from this excellent vintage. While drinking very well now, it showed no signs of deterioration during the hour it was consumed. Went very well with Indian Rack of Lamb (Berrah Kebab) and the Ginger & Lime chicken.
