Smoke on the Water - 1996 Pape Clement
Posted: Mon Aug 26, 2013 1:06 pm
Very smoky aroma. It was smooth, rich and creamy. Earthy with black cherry, lead pencil and a bit of funk. Mid-weight, well balanced and quite distinctive. Liked this one a lot. It's into its drinking window and one of my favorite 1996s so far. If you want a score, a solid 92-93.
Opened based on the recommendation of johnz (Gary Rust). Glad to have half a dozen more of this.
