If you have this in your cellar, you should drink a bottle now. The palate is pure red cherry and red berry fruit, and the texture is so soft and caressing, it's where you want this to be, with added nuances of bay leaf and some spice notes. Very enjoyable. Four years since my last bottle, in December, 2015, a bbq in Florida where we debated the upcoming election; seems very far removed.

Pnp. Drinking very well with about 30 minutes of air in the glass. Copious amounts of fruit, in a balanced way, with some nice old world notes interwoven in the fruit. Just in a sweet spot IMO, but I do prefer my old world wines a bit more modern in style.

Over 2.5 years since my last bottle. This showed that Scopetone richness and forward fruit, but balanced. Good showing, with rich berry fruit and sweet earth notes. BBQ in Hallandale.

A newly opened box of cigars, thyme, cherries, plums, ink, cool fruit, perfect balance. Ready to drink, but will last.
