2 bts of ex OWC 1989 (pics available) Pape Clement. Labels tired after being in a dampish cellar, but levels, capsules and contents are A1. Drinking wonderfully now, this was one of the first great PCs after years in the doldrums. Best on WineSearcher is £135 deli[vered, reserve is less than half that. Neal Martin says 'f you cannot afford Haut Brion '89 (£1800 a bottle) then this is a good alternative'
PayPal please, but will ask 4% for fees.
Thanks for looking

Compared to the 1990 Pape-Clement, the aromatics on the 1989 are just as compelling. It is blessed with a complex bouquet of roasted chestnut and decayed leaves once again, but showing a little more fruit intensity than the 1990, with greater youthful vivacity. The palate is medium-bodied with very fine balance and supple, opulent tannins: touches of cedar, sandalwood, cooked meats, dark berried fruit with a touch of spice on the earthy finish. Very good delineation and you have to admire its decadence. If you cannot afford Haut Brion '89, they this is a good alternative. Tasted July 2010.
