The 1997 Peter Barlow is dark ruby colored and has a Chateau Margaux-like nose of violets, dark cherries, cassis, and intensely ripe blackberries. This is a refined, focused, powerful, highly-structured, foursquare wine. It is crammed with tangy currants and assorted black fruits that are intermingled with touches of melted road tar. It should be at its best between 2002 and 2008. Imported by Cape Classics, New York, NY; tel (212) 906-9100; fax (212) 906-0001.
