  October 6, 2009 - Ridge Monte Bello Vertical 72-03 (Ken's house, northbrook IL): nose: very interesting nose that is filled with dark red cherries, notes of warm caramel, and a good helping of sour berries. Excellent depth with some good layering that added a real nice dimension to the tones on the nose
  
  taste: excellent medium feel with good depth and well defined tones of brown sugar, dark red cherries, hot caramel, and berry tones. Good medium acidity still exists
  
  overall: this one threw me for a loop as it was blind. It had the look of a tawny port in the glass, but didn't smell like it at all. Outstanding tones on both the nose and palate with real good depth and a real good sense of itself

  October 3, 2009 - (from memory) Light ruby, simple nose of plum, cherry and mixed spices, palate was sweet but balanced by crisp acidity, a little heat on the finish just not a lot of complexity, finish was shorter than expected, especially for a dessert wine
