So good, and everything you want from mature, classic red burgundy. Elegant and complex, this shows no hints of over-ripeness or other ill effects from the vintage. Ready to go any time, though certainly has plenty of life left.

Far more impressive than my last and recent note. Still has a touch of tannin but a powerful and rich red fruit note has emerged. No meat, no beef. The finish is, however, still not fully realized because of the tannin. One bottle left.

Still nicely alive, but not for much longer. On the elegant pure red fruit side and nicely so. Fine as far as it goes, but there should be a bit more stuffing here.

belated bday dinner for ESTEELE90 (Kali Restaurant, Los Angeles, CA): light ruby color. Nose earthy. Palate earthy cherries, some sappy intensity to the fruit still though perhaps on a slight downslope from peak? 90 pts

Nice fully mature GC burgundy. Ripe, but doesn't show the overt roasted character or heaviness of some of the other '90s.
