My first post on Delectable. Grabbed this little guy for 60 bucks at KL in Redwood City. Classic PL - some riverbed goodness, a bit of smoke, fruit on the downward march, and overall quite good. Nice value for the age, even in the weak vintage.

Amazing. Still acidity and some tannins present, full bodied for a '97 vintage being served in 6/2016
