Sunday, September 7, 2014 - Cotat, Myriad, Yalumba, Nicora, Keplinger (GHT): Beautiful wine. Chris opted for pnp as he heard this doesn't hold up at this point. It was so lovely on opening I thought that odd, but indeed it lasted about a half hour before starting to decline. I never got to revisit it later than that to see how it rebounded. Ruby/purple in color. The nose has black raspberries, black pepper, and charcoal. Nice texture. This is not a monster shiraz in any way at this point. Showing layered complexity. Black currants with some spice and some woodiness. Nice balance.
