Eng,
I know older wines tend to get lighter in color but I've never seen one look almost white. It is interesting drinking some older wines when they have lost some color but thier fruit is still concentrated and youthful. Kinda catches you off guard.

But none of these wine had any signs of bricking and certainly no loss of color. Of the few 91s that i've tasted recently, all were sitting in thier prime. I do believe the '91 vintage was underrated, but probably because of the highly rated '90 vintage. I'm just speculating here, maybe WW will chime in. His cellar has seen all of these wines by the box = he has way more experience in this than I.

WW, I responded on your '91 Simi post
