V91. Red-pink, 50% opaque. Maraschino cherry, dry mid palate, long. Really liked. This is showing beautifully, but will not last another two decades.

Later, still liked. But not as full as some.

Fairly dark. Strong taste of Pontefract cakes.

Still quite dark. Nice clean nose with some good fruit still. Rich. Liked a lot.
