Mature red fruits, decent balance, fully mature “regular” CdP, time to drink up (I have 1 more). BTW, Baron Le Roy was one of the key, if not THE key, movers and shakers behind CdP getting the Appellation Controlee designation back in the 20th century, and the chateau has a lovely restaurant!!

Fully mature CdP, redfruits, faint soy notes, 14% ABV, not intrusive, medium-long finish, time to drink up, but a decent drinker.

Mature red fruits, a bit soft and starting to show some soy notes, time to drink up, just so-so for a 1998 CdP.
