April 17, 2024 - Dark purple almost opaque color
Medium plus aromas of ripe blue/ black fruit with slight smoked meat and pepper along with green stemmy notes - no noted oak influence
Medium bodied with palate of sweet ripe blueberry and plum - hint of Brett at end of palate but never really noted on the nose
Medium plus tannins on tongue, typical of Syrah - medium plus alcohol and medium plus acidity
Medium length led by fruit and tannins
I initially really liked this wine when poured for a blind tasting - small bit of Brett on the palate but not too much
When I poured more with dinner that evening the Brett was much more noticeable on the nose and the next day this wine was simply undrinkable - wine is amazing like that, Ive never witnessed the Brett blossom before32 views
