Happy 60th James!

None of my normal formal notes other than to say the evolution in 5L was better than expected. It was nicely, softened, round with good complexity & elegance.

Sweet & sour cherries, blueberries, stewed plums, saddlewood, soft tarry notes, bright dark, red with hints of blue florals. Exceeded my expectations.

Paired well with my heavy meat red sauce. Guests seem to enjoy both as they are both gone!

Photos of, the party in our friends amazing backyard and Hedy’s tasty appetizers.
