Really singing tonight. Classic RRV, cherry, earth, spice. Lots of fruit without being ripe, sweet smooth tannins, mouth coating finish. Got continuously better over four hours, suggests another few years of solid drinking. I have one left!

Terrible. Cork was in fine shape, but wine had turned. Cloying, port-like sweetness with a squishy mid-palate. Remembered enjoying it at the winery, but this was just awful.

Last bottle was worth the wait. Smooth sweet tannins, RRV nose of cherry and mushrooms, ripe strawberry on palate.

Very complex, black cherry, eucalyptus notes. Classic RRV nose. A little thin mid-palate, but very nice.

A bit light on its feet, not a lot of concentration, pretty good fruit. Not that inspiring, but pretty pleasant.
