  Little hot on entry. Assertive cherry cola. Medium body. Not sure if this has much to offer from aging any further. Also reminds of a, Aussie-style shiraz.

  Still a good bottle, seems to have lost some of the fruit that was so predominate 2 years ago.
  Recommended at $15 and under.

  A little sweeter than you'd expect from a syrah, but it worked! Decanted but didn't Vinturi.

  Based on the reviews, I expected a strong fruit presence (jammy). Instead this is spicey and smooth, with not much fruit/berry. There is a bit of tannin and oak. Medium body with a decent finish. Very good with food.

  Loud but lovely. Went "pew pew pew" in my mouth when I first tasted it.
