By itself probably a good wine but tonight it was trumped by better wines.
I will re-visit soon but at this point I'd recommend to drink up any remaining stash.

Good color but acid has dropped out. Still a good wine, but not very exciting either.

One of the best '97 made. Still plenty of acid and red fruit.

All the secondary and tertiary flavors you want from a 20 year old wine.

Even cooler is the price of this wine then and now, absolute steal!

Starting to fall a part. Tannins fully integrated and decent finish. A bit hallow in the mid palate. Dark red fruits, tobacco and dirt.
