March 9, 2019 - This bottle has everything the wine could have. The fruit is very fresh and the body behind is quite convincing and the wine shows very pure.
The backbone supports the wine till the end of the taste in the mouth; lovely stuff. -

May 7, 2018 - As I wrote before this wine matches perfect with food, but drink this wine soon; I tasted the first beginning of age and maybe decline.

January 8, 2018 - A bit commercially made, but who cares if the result is a juicy wine with a very fresh and open bouquet. After 4+ years there are some minerals added in the bouquet and the taste, The Syrah is pure, the wine is balanced and has now sufficient depth in the midtaste.

May 1, 2017 - The same overall impression as before, although this time the citrus backbone was even a bit more elegant and refreshing; no punishment to taste.
