November 11, 2023 - Musty leather on the nose, saltwater melded with dark, sweet blackberry, hints of black pepper spice, with a very earthy mushroom finish. Sweet and very robust with balanced, yet mellow tannins.

August 26, 2023 - Purchased in 2013. From memory, on the nose lots of raspberry liqueur, some earth, ? mushroom, just a hint of white pepper. Fairly fresh though with some tertiary notes. In the mouth, good fruit with a touch of resin, modest complexity, nice fruit/ acid balance, well resolved tannins, medium body, med intensity and med+ long finish.

December 16, 2022 - Faceless but good with Friday pizza.
A neither warm nor cold clime Syrah with avpleasant vibe to it.
Very much as expected.
If you have btls, no need to be stressed even if this wine is never going to surprise anyone. -
