As usual with Py - SUPER dark red color. A lot of leather and tobacco. Try it if you find it. It is worth the 120$ paid. But I think it might smooth a little more with another 3-5 years of aging

Dense and meaty with moderately mature black cherry and berry, well supported with earth and roast meat notes. Very good weight for its level, with Dugat-Py's trademark concentration, but also showing wonderful balance. At a great place now.

Had at Aria; deep dark red, still youthful looking; the nose was blowing right out of the bottle, deep, exotic, funky, earthy, still a great mix of darker red fruit, plush, peppery, almost Northern Rhone like, 92+ point nose for sure; the palate was a different story completely, at first rich and plush but then the wine just dropped off, hollow mid and little on the finish probably due to the vintage.

Served with an excellent 91 DRC, which did not do it a disservice despite the oak which, though evident, is successfully integrating into the wine. Nicely middle aged with youthful fruit showing some secondary development and a bright future ahead. Resonates well in the shadow of the older wine. From John and Annabelle's Cellar.

Dark rich ripe dark cherry. Bramble dry cherry bit rustic, nice jammy edge.A bit disjointed, but offers pleasure.
