Still a favorite. Maturing very well.

Blackberry, tomato leaf and iodine dominate the smalls and taste. A lot of fruit hiding underneath a lot of unresolved tannins. But this should develop very nicely with more time in the dark. Hard for me to tell the full potential but at worst it will be a very pleasant claret. Could be more.
Score: 91+. Relative to expectations: + at least.

Annual Caroling & Chili Party (R&D's): Red fruit, earth and bouillon notes. The bouillon quality follows through on the palate and I found it a little distracting. Perhaps not a representative sample, though others appreciated this more than I. (R&D)

Lots of fruit, cherry, spicy flavours, smooth, long finish,... High Merlot content of 85%, the rest: 10% Cabernet Franc and 5% Cabernet Sauvignon. Still too young for my taste, drink it in 5-7 years.
