shared with pat at selkirk manor. this wine caught my eye on the drink by list and i decided that it was time to see what the famous C du P 2007 vintage was all about. cork was intact. no penetration. heavy sedimentation in the bottle required a gentle pour. did not decant. still youthful but approachable. purple color. fragrant. flowery. light to medium body. short finish. probably not the best of the vintage but good qpr at this price point.

Drank a glass with a ribeye, which proved to be too overpowering for the wine. It was considerably better after dinner, revealing pleasant fruit. A decent CdP for the price, particularly for those who like a more restrained style.

Notes consistent with the prior bottle, though the fruit is a bit more subdued, and the savory components seem better integrated. Still a great bottle.
