Tuesday, April 8, 2014 - intoxicating perfume; shows smoke, flowers and fresh picked berries, feminine and beautiful, shows strength of fruit without being too fruity or candied, caresses the palate with red cherries, sweet cranberries, bright plums and clean stone, the finish is long like the cork, very special, delicious and exotic, this is high tier syrah

Definitely not "fresh" and "beautiful" or "bright" or "clean" but harsh and fruitless, like it had been made out of cactus instead of grapes. More like 'retarded' than just merely closed, which is why when I ordered my 2012's, I ordered everything except The Unnamed. Thanks to your note, I'll look forward to my next bottle with more hope than I'd have felt otherwise.
