• Review of the evening as a whole;

50% opacity, mature dark red. Nose had ripe plums and strawberries, almost jammy. Very clean and silky smooth on the palate. Strawberries. I guessed F77.

W70 = “TC”: glorious red, 60% opaque. Big luscious sweetness. Heat mid-palate, but smooth long ending. Very fine.
