Great wine, paired with charcuterie fun to try with lots of differnent cheeses! Tastes surprisingly young for 2010, still a lot of fruit and meduim-high tannins. Keeps getting better over time! Excited to try the '06 vintage.

I'm very impressed with this wine, and think it's a great expression of Syrah. However, it's hard to drink alongside Minimalist's "Stars in the Dark" and "No Place Like Home", just because of how impressive those were. This is a little less complex, and more fruity & fun. Great wine, but could be at a little lower of a price point considering it's only $5 less than the other two.

Fruity/Raspberry aromatics, bit more savory & tannic compared to "Stars in the Dark". High quality and impressive Syrah.
