Saturday dinner extravaganza in Tucson (Tucson - home of RM): This wine has matured wonderfully. Drank this a couple of years ago and it was completely over the top with fruit. But, the wine was drinking wonderfully last night. Still very rich with aromas of dried apricots and lilies. But the wine is now more balanced with a palette of minerals, white peaches and a long finish. Got a hint of petrol on the palette.

Removed wax and cork was wet. Yikes, not another corked bottle. Luckily it was not corked and actually was very good. Nutty, flowery, stony aroma. Pear, stone fruits, short finish. Drank at 59 degrees. Put it in fridge to see how it tastes a little cooler.Longer finish now. Very good quaffer.

Huge extraction, honeysuckle, peaches. A bit cloying.

Very aromatic with notes of peach, pears and lychee. It threatens to get too fruity, but the acidity at the finish saves it.
