Retailed at SGD200plus, I popped this aged beauty 1978 Paul Jaboulet Aine "Les Cedres" Chateauneuf Du Pape over dinner at Demona's pad to celebrate Demona's big big burfday. Light brownish red colour with nice brown hue at the rim, the wine exhibits plenty of character. Perfumy, albeit a little gamey nose of leather, undergrowth, cherry, and sweet licorice. Some Mushrooom as well. After decanting, more chinese bitter herbal notes emerged. On the palate, the Les Cedres was light and dancing on the palate. Finish was medium short. Excellent.
