Last bottle of 6 consumed over the years. The wine evolved from a dark, tarry, wine of mystery to something more akin to Cote Rotie and now a bit softer. The main adjective to apply is delicious. Both red and blue fruit, a bit of tar remains (lovely!), charred meat, a bit of black olive. Long and lush. If feels entirely mature, so if I had more I’d be looking to drink them in the next 2 or 3 years.

It has evolved from a dark, opaque, big wine to one with slight translucency and faint amber edge. Prominent and complex aromas of red and black fruits. Medium-full body, nicely balanced, no heat or tannin. Fully mature, should be drunk soon. I'll have my remaining two bottles in the next year. Ric

*****Drink away, no reason to wait and probably should not.
Very nice red but not a spicy or bold Syrah.

This was drinking really well tonight. Sweet fruit, medium body with great balance.
