Fruit forward. Strawberry and black berries, napa currant and darker fruit doesn’t seem to come out after 5 hour decant. Might be worth a hold but I don’t see it long term transformed.

Properly cellared, well evolved since last 5.5 years ago. The fort Ross fruit is coming right through now. Lemon curd, a little apple and pineapple all meshing. Drink or hold a few more years.

Dark red cherry fruit, floral merged with darker purple Cabernet. Fairly complex. Needed 2 hour decant to start showing its core.
