Friday, December 22, 2017 - Thoroughly enjoyed my final bottle from this sentimental favorite (from the tasting menu at Cyrus circa 2011, while dating my now-wife).
I'd consider this fully mature, peaking, not yet on the downhill but in such a charming place now I wouldn't wait. Plenty of acidity. medium fruit, tannin entirely resolved. Aromatic, feminine, finessed wine. The fruit is round and sweet (no RS), so I'd stay in CA with my guesses, but this is a reminder that syrah is an aromatic grape in the same vein as PN. Developing a caramel note I associate with age. Just lovely.
