Wine is still drinking very nice. Very much the same results as stated in my last comments. Cherry and spice with Forte to make it nice!! What I like is that the Forte is not dominant or overwhelming, but it supports the great taste!

Translucent light red, like a pinot. Good nose of raspberry compote and spice. Light to medium bodied, bright cherries, black pepper, soft tannins, some heat, with some leather showing up in the back. Finally, a slightly sweet and tangy medium length finish. Much improved from prior year versions.

Scott has definitely made this a better wine. I didn't perceive any RS, although it was a bit richer than his other wines. Light, easygoing, tasty, and a winner in a large group.

Consistent with my notes from last March. Nose is full of spice and earth. Well-structured.

Eleven months later, the port note is mostly gone, and the tannins are muscling up somewhat. Still very much a magnificent wine.
