97 Points

Tuesday, November 13, 2018 - One of the best wines I've had in a while. Am a bit baffled by the low ratings on this. I had the '05 too many years ago and it was similarly striking and extraordinary. This is super detailed, intense, with a vibrant sweet core of fruit but balanced by dryness on the finish and a sublime licorice backdrop. So defined and precise but also so expansive and expressive. While I love plenty of Syrahs from California and Rhone, they seem flabby by comparison to this stunning beauty.
